Original Title
おとなりの片羽さん
Description
Kiss me, strangle me, and kill me—
Morishita Mei, a second-year high school student, pushed to the edge by her abusive mother, is overcome with murderous intent; before doing anything extreme, she flees into the night with a kitchen knife.
She thought she had fled to a deserted spot, but runs into her classmate, Fujishiro Nanoha, who sees the blade.
Morishita tries to come up with an excuse to avoid a major scandal, but Fujishiro makes an unexpected proposal.
‘If there’s someone you want to kill that badly, why don’t you kill me…’
Morishita dismisses Fujishiro outright at such a deranged remark, but that trivial incident becomes the catalyst for the two of them to become involved, gradually turning into convenient figures for one another.
They are neither friends nor lovers.
Though it is a relationship of convenience, meant to be less than friendship, in time they weave a bond that goes beyond that of lovers.
A story of girls who long to be perfect, yet remain somehow incomplete—
A yuri story of co-dependent girls harbouring deep worries within their hearts.
