Synopsis

Professional flutist Naomi Kuchiki has been suffering from strange nightmares where she sees a man holding a skull. Unable to fall asleep, she consults with psychologist Matsuzaki—who is anything but conventional. He immediately deciphers Kuchiki's reason for coming to his office and tells her that, beneath these incomprehensible dreams, there might lay a deep-rooted memory she wishes to forget.

At the same time, a headless skeleton is found in an empty apartment following an anonymous call. Inspector Tsuyoshi Ishikura suspects that the caller is involved in the case and has set up the crime scene as a challenge to the police. Going off of a mysterious apple-like symbol on the window frame and a photo from five years ago, he sets out to find the one responsible.

Elsewhere, the grand return of musical director Yasafumi Yuuki leads to a fallout between violinist Akiho Maya—Kuchiki's friend and Yuuki's ex-girlfriend—and her fiance Kazuo Tamaki, a pianist with an injured hand. With all the pieces being brought together, the tragic mystery behind Kuchiki's memory loss is about to unfold.

I spent the entire day to complete this series and didn’t regret starting on it at all.

The series contains a brilliant plot which revolves around a vicious game of human nature, vice and psychological barriers. The story starts off with the female protagonist who had lost a significant part of her memory of someone in her life and how she struggles in her nightmares in the process of regaining them. She then sought the solace and help of a psychiatrist (the male protagonist) in hope of finding the truth that would change her life forever. But… things are not what it seems on the ...

I think some of you have already completed reading the manga, however in my case, I couldn't find the other chapters, translated in English.

I haven't finished it, but so far, I'm loving the story, it is mystery in a sense that the reader don't get scared while reading it.

Every character have their own story that is connected with the others, the manga didn't only focus on Kuchiki, but to the supporting casts as well.
