This is a visual novel depicting the taboo relationship and crucial decisions between a "Chimera" girl—an artificial lifeform—and the young man who becomes her tutor. ■ Story Meeting you was a calculated trap. Can I truly say, with my head held high, that I’m glad we met? I am still searching for the answer. Since the day we met, the gears of my life have spiraled out of control. I don’t blame you. I know it couldn’t possibly be your fault. If I were to let go of your hand, I could surely return to my ordinary life. And yet, looking at you, I find I cannot let go. Is this feeling merely pity? Or is it———— ________________________________________ Yoshifumi Akiyama is a part-time cram school tutor who has abandoned his dream of becoming a school teacher.
