We are taught to believe in our society, by 'people' who profit enormously from this belief. And that society in which we believe and by which we punish ourselves is utterly bass ackwards. Yet again, Loups=Garous' creator, Kyougoku Natsuhiko, shines a floodlight on our collective delusion.
Although not as good as other of his works, _Loups=Garous_ is more straightforward than usual, and reminiscent of George Bernard Shaw's _Saint Joan_. The hero alone is aware. The hero saves society, but is so far ahead of society that the hero must be ostracised.
Kyougoku-san, keep telling it like it is.

* Based on a virtual reality werewolf novel by Kyougoku Natsuhiko.
Virtual reality. Murder. Werewolves. And teen girls! In a future where nothing is as it seems, can old legends come true? In the near future, humans will communicate almost exclusively through monitors, making real interaction a rarefied and weak occurrence for those living in a near totalitarian society. In this new world of communication, children are only allowed to interact personally on school grounds. So when a serial killer starts slaughtering junior high children the communication routes go under further surveillance. And despite all the safeguards put in place to avoid physical interaction, the killer's latest victim turns out to have been in contact with three young girls: Tsuzuki Mio, a certified prodigy; Makino Hazuki, a quiet but opinionated classmate; and Kouno Ayumi, her best friend. And as the girls get caught up in trying to quell curiosity under such terrorist scrutiny, Hatsuki learns that there is much more than meets the eye of their monitored communications.

Strange artstyle with a weird yet familiar story (reminds a lot of Psycho Pass). Overall not a bad way to pass some time.

The "boku" pronoun is masculine, usually associated with younger boys, and not used by females.

A similar concept using the "ore" pronoun is the orekko., necktieThe necktie (or tie) is a long piece of cloth worn around the neck or shoulders, resting under the shirt collar and knotted at the throat., psychopathPsychopaths are individuals who have an extremely strong disregard for both the rights of others and the rules of society.

They are generally regarded as callous, selfish, insensitive, dishonest, arrogant, aggressive, impulsive, irresponsible, and hedonistic., short hairShort hair is hair from (but not including) bald, up to (but not including) shoulder-length hair. This hair length is what one would typically, though not always, see on most males. Short hair includes hair that goes no more than a centimetre or two beyond the chin; anything longer is shoulder-length., single hosiery pieceA single hosiery piece is any piece of hosiery that is not worn as a pair. This may be in the form of hosiery being worn on only one leg, or in the form of mismatching hosiery, where each leg has a piece but they do not form a pair. Naturally, this only applies to characters with more than just one leg., studentA student or pupil is a learner, or someone who attends an educational institution. The may be understood to mean only those enrolled in some sort of educational institution, but, in its widest use, it applies to anyone who is learning, including mid-career adults who are taking vocational education or returning to university, or younger researchers or artists learning from a more experienced colleague and mentor., yellow eyesThis character has yellow eyes.
