This is a story about a nerdy hikikomori, Yu-san stuck in his parents' home. His fortune changes when he gets a match in a dating app. "Poppo-san", the girl from the app, had a weird fantasy in mind that she wanted eagerly to fulfill.

And no, it's not the kind request that Rui from DomeKano had in mind, as was referenced to in this one shot manga :)

Turned out Poppo-san really wanted to put an end to her life. And for some reason, she thought Yu is gonna be a great partner to commit suicide with! Will their adventure lead them both into the pits of ... hell, like they wish for? Find our for yourselves... it's only a one shot.

The story is about a loser who suffers bullying at school and a famous and beautiful actress, it is not the typical manga where the beautiful chia falls in love with the protagonist, it is a realistic manga where even a beautiful actress has difficulties that lead her to want to commit suicide, they come to meet each other and, based on the girl's idea, he proposes that they commit suicide together, he accepts and they have beautiful moments, they know each other a little better and they even find a corpse in the forest, all of which makes the boy reflect on whether it ... is okay to commit suicide, Life is important if the moments that I spent with the girl were a jewel in the middle of the mud or a dark story that I would rather forget, whatever it is, he would like to remember all that happened that day with a smile in the future

It is always nice to read Sasuga Kei's stories. They are easy to read, light, enjoyable... But precisely because they are light, they deal poorly with serious or darker topics. Sasuga Kei often throws in archs involving prostitution, drugs, eating disorders, bullying... and they end up being so superfluous that feels like a waste. Pure filling. And here we have a story revolving around a girl who wants to commit suicide and finds a partner to help her with it.

Truth be told, this one-shot is enjoyable and it could develop into a classic Sasuga Kei romantic story that I would devour happily.
However, judging by ... the precedents seen in Good Ending and Domestic na Kanojo when it comes to sensitive topics, I can't help but to think that if "Kanojo to boku no end roll" becomes a serialized manga it will go south real quick.
