"Night." It was something once referred to as a natural disaster. In the face of an onslaught of disasters that surpass human intellect, the boys do nothing but dance. To borrow the power of the gods, to appease the wrath of the "Night," and to save this world—. Jin, a boy living in a rural Japanese town, meets Gao, a British soldier who was driven from his hometown by the "Night." Surrounded by nature in a peaceful town, the two spend their youth with their friends. However, the "Night" attacks them once again...!?

Superb artistic skill that embodies terrifyingly beautiful imagery, a thrilling story, and youth. It is incredibly interesting.

Oh! great's Comment

I never in a million years imagined that I would receive words from Ms. Takahashi...! As someone whose heart fluttered for Lum-chan back in elementary school and who eagerly awaited each publication of Mermaid Saga, I am so happy that I am beyond words, and at the same time, filled with the utmost humility.
*Note: Mermaid Saga was an irregularly serialized short-story series.

I have received wonderful comments from many masters in the past, and each time, I am deeply moved and shaken by such an undeserved honor. I will continue to devote myself to my work so that I do not shame these words, for which I am all too grateful!

Thank you so very much!!
