The high school classroom is a minefield of social hierarchy, where one wrong seating assignment can ruin a semester. Whispers follow the girl in the corner who wears heavy gothic lace, platform boots, and a permanent, spine-chilling glare. She is the ultimate warning sign—a "jirai-kei" girl rumored to possess a volatile, yandere streak that spells disaster for anyone foolish enough to cross her path.

"Quiet observer" Kuroki just wants to survive the year without attracting attention, but a cruel twist of the seating chart lands him right next to this social hazard. When a clumsy mistake forces his first encounter with Mai Chihara, he braces for a horror manga twist. Instead, he gets a front-row seat to her bizarre, sweet, and incredibly awkward daily routine. Beneath the dark lace and intimidating aura lies a deeply eccentric girl who might just want a friend—or is the gothic aesthetic a warning sign he shouldn't ignore?
