The premise

Etsuro Kurosu faills getting into a university and becomes a hikikomori. One day, he tries to hang himself from a hook on the wall in his apartment. He fails, but his attempt leaves a hole in the wall. Through the hole wall, Etsuro Kurosu can now see Rio Miyaichi. He becomes fascinated with the girl that lives next door. Later, while peeping at her through the wall, Etsuro Kurosu sees her in the process of brutally murdering someone. He screams and is caught by her. Etsuro Kurosu confesses that he loves her and they start to date. Etsuro Kurosu feels happiness in his life, but what will happen to him? Will he be murdered by Rio Miyaichi?

Horror Vault's take

A university dropout so withdrawn from society he barely leaves his apartment stumbles into the most dangerous relationship imaginable when he discovers his mysterious neighbour has a very dark hobby. Rather than run, he confesses his feelings — and somehow, she doesn't immediately kill him. What follows is a twisted romantic thriller that constantly keeps you guessing whether love or a body bag awaits him. Based on a manga, this Japanese dark comedy-horror blurs the line between affection and mortal peril with deadpan charm.
