Your Tales of the Unusual
“Bizarre worldviews, lots of foreshadowing, unpredictable plots. Outcomes that exceed the imagination, followed by terror. These are the stories of five people who get lost in weird, scary, even amusing worlds filled with twists and turns.”
An omnibus drama based on short stories by Ryo Asai, who won the 22nd Novel Subaru Rookie Award for The Kirishima Thing and the 148th Naoki 35 Award for SOMEONE.
