Inspired by the themes of Osamu Dazai's iconic novel, No Longer Human, this unique isekai story begins with a premise steeped in tragedy and existential despair. The main character, weighed down by feelings of disconnection and failure, decides to end his life with his lover in a double suicide. Yet even during this act, fate intervened in the most surreal way—just as he jumped to his death, a truck hit him, sending him into another world.
Awakening in a world completely different from his own, the protagonist is greeted not with salvation or understanding, but with a new set of challenges. Strangely, his thoughts remained focused on his original goal: to reunite with his lover to complete the act of suicide they had planned together. For him, this strange and fantastic world is not an escape or an adventure—but an obstacle to his ultimate wish.
The story is laced with dark humor and irony, as the protagonist's dark determination conflicts with the conventions of the typical isekai genre. While other characters may seek power, glory, or a new life, his focus is solitary and macabre: searching for his lover, whom he believes has also been lost. brought into this world.
