BL isn't the focus of this Manga, rather than that, it's the horror/thriller aspect that truly makes it shine. It really takes the Skin-walker genre to another level, though it seems that this 'Hikaru' is madly in love (or rather obsessed) with Yoshiki. After discovering that his friend isn't his friend, Yoshiki is in a constant state of fear, and regret. It is hinted that he had a crush on Hikaru - unable to accept that Hikaru isn't here anymore - he accepts the thing that took over Hikaru's body. The art is really nice, it perfectly translates the constant eeriness emanating from 'Hikaru' and the village. Not to mention this shit be goofy asf sometimes 💀

Great, promising premise so far (only 8 eng unofficial translated as of May 21). Contains horror with lovecraftian influences. BL isn't the main focus, more so interpersonal relationship between the two main characters but still feels well-considered and heartfelt. Looking forward to where it goes from here!
