▍About Kaii to Otome to Kamikakushi

Mysterious incidents occur one after another in a certain city. The challenge of the mysterious incidents is taken up by the two bookstore employees who have decided to face them, Sumireko Ogawa, a simple girl who is an aspiring novelist full of sex appeal with many admirers behind her, and the enigmatic Adashino, a bookworm who is full of mysteries.
This is the story of a small friendship and a parting of ways through a number of strange occurrences. A modern-day bizarre romanesque with a piercing combination of “weirdness”, “girls”, and “sexuality”.
