At the point of writing, there are only 2 chapters. Narrative wise, while I think it is interesting especially for this medium of Manga, this form of drama (teacher-student relationship-risk-thing) isn't really lacking in Japanese media. Still, based on the nuance in character building and storytelling in these 2 chapters, I would say that there is an overwhelming amount of potential. The biggest selling point of this story would be its mystery and the threat of social suicide. But this narrative thread is extremely easy to tilt toward bleak nihilism especially considering the fact that controversy and social ostracisation is pretty horrifying in Japan. I, for one hope that it doesn't go too much into the waters of false accusations as the film 'The Hunt' did (though it would be interesting, harder to execute well, and not particularly pleasant to read), and perhaps tell a more gentle and subtle story about human nature.
Another potential pitfall might be that the story goes on for far too long for its own good. I think something like 'Boy's Abyss' or 'Blood on the Tracks' as great as they are, can feel like they suffer a little from an overly lengthy narrative, repeating similar psychological turmoils and cues from earlier sequences.
To conclude, the story may read a little typical now, but there's a lot of potential here. I may be assuming this based on the storytelling execution of these 2 chapters and this assumption may be proven wrong in the future but I have a good feeling about this. Hope this nuance in its storytelling keeps up in the later chapters. I may revisit this review in the future.
