A monster who wants to be feared. A ghost who wants to be seen. A romance that will haunt your heart. A 2025 Chill Chill Award winner!

Tsubaki Koton is a monster -- a violent delinquent with a chilling past and a terrifying image to match. No other student dares to approach him, not even now he's transferred to a new high school. His anti-heroic acts of selflessness end only in bloodshed and rumors that spiral out of control. But one night, he's followed home by a stranger who sets out to change his life for good. This boy, stubborn and hauntingly beautiful, is the pure-hearted Kabuto Yuuki, with his stunning jewel-like eyes that see past Tsubaki's fearsome charade. But although someone finally sees Tsubaki for who he truly is, Kabuto cannot be seen at all. After all, Kabuto is a ghost.

"This volume was impossibly adorable. There was no way, honestly, to dislike his story about a "monster" with a heart of gold and the ghost who pushes him to interact more with the people around him, who gets a little jealous of him when he does. [...] Super cute, go ahead and read it." -- Erica Friedman, Anime News Network
