"Congratulations on being born." Once I opened my eyes, I was in a cold laboratory. I wasn't born because I wasn't human, I was created, but she still celebrates it nevertheless. I learned how to live by drinking coffee together, smelling the scent, hearing the sound of decoration shaking due to the wind, and becoming close to the rabbit who often came to visit the garden. However... "Actually, in a week from now, I'm going to die." She, who neither complains about pain or reveals her pain, is calm, but why does my heart hurt so much? I was also a person who could shed tears. "Why did you create me? Why did you make me like you?"

Sera and Heeju are identical twins, but no one confuses the two. Sera is beautiful, bright, and charming, while Heeju is dirty, smells bad, and has no charm at all. Heeju became this way due to the abuse and discrimination she suffered from her mother since childhood. Because of that, Heeju's soul gradually withered, and she got used to the idea that "it's all your fault" for being so insignificant. Until one day, when Heeju, after accidentally finding a lost dog, gets closer to Grandma Myungja. Thanks to Grandma Myungja, who sees her without prejudice, Heeju begins to experience a new phase in her life...

A collection of standalone stories written by both Furuya Usamaru and Otsuichi. The stories all revolve around the common troubles that teenagers go through, whether it be falling out with a friend, being bullied, or dieting.

A new teacher proves to be popular with the students and their parents. But one of his students feels like he is picking on him deliberately. Around the same time, the student in question starts seeing a blue-skinned… thing that only he can see. A girl starts staying at home more after a car accident leaves her blind. But is she really alone in the house? A guy moves into an apartment whose previous owner is still around… in a different form. It turns out that the latter was murdered at the front door.

Two kids, Kouhei and Akio, made up an imaginary girl named Hajime to take the blame for destruction of the principal's copper statue. But one day, they meet a girl that is exactly like their description of Hajime, but only they can see her.

A rather morbid, sombre manga about two high school students, Kamiyama Itsuki and Morino Yoru, who have a peculiar interest in deaths and especially in murders that are committed near to them. Due to their strong fascination with murder and highly-developed analytical skills (along with some luck), they manage to solve the murders that have even eluded the authorities. However, acting on their own sense of justice and in self-interest, the murderers are often able to escape with the murders that they have committed. Often, it is Kamiyama that solves the cases even to the most subtle of details, but he is only interested in one thing, and that is the method by which Yoru should be killed.
