Yuta Soma

A spine-chilling collection of eerie ghost stories, depicted from an unsettling perspective, brought to you by the modern anthology of supernatural horror.

Hibiki was born with a chronic heart condition. Because of his health, his daily actions and physical movements are heavily restricted, constantly keeping him from pursuing the active lifestyle and activities he truly wants to experience. One day, he discovers that his classmate, Chiharu, carries the exact same quiet struggle and emotional burden. The story beautifully captures the warm, empathetic bond that forms between two teenagers navigating their limitations through a shared emotional rhythm, subtly mirrored by the steps of a waltz.

Step aside, GTO, class is in session and Yuichi Hoshino, with his bowl cut, is leading it. Hoshino is an old-fashioned "hot-blooded teacher," which means he uses his upbeat never-say-die attitude to bulldoze people into education. He has been assigned to a rural school as a substitute teacher, which is where he finds that his attitude might not be enough as Hoshino confronts the children of 2025 who are suffering from a variety of issues. For instance, there is Kana, who is a Highly Sensitive Person and has resorted to e-learning. Meanwhile Eita labours under a strict father whose overly-demanding attitude causes stress. As Hoshino communicates with the kids and their parents, his attitude crashes into the complications surrounding contemporary education.
