Synopsis

The story is about a man whose compulsive tendencies make it impossible for him to keep a job, and a young girl who skips school and loves insects. The two meet, come to support each other in reintegrating into society, and fall in love. There’s a problem, however: namely, the parasites in their heads.

I can't believe this LN is so underrated. I randomly picked up a copy at a shop in germany and didn't know what to expect, but after finishing my readthrought, I became really emotional.

I defintly recommend reading this if you ...

But, setting that all aside, I would definitely ...

An open-ended conclusion with no resolve is not deep, no I don't want to have my own interpretation, I would write my own story if that was the case.

All the literary potential was wasted, such a shame.


If the story had no potential at all, I would have not hated it this much, if ...
