Katsuai Monster

Kabutani is a monster who survives by consuming human energy, living as a ruthless predator among his peers. Despite warnings from others of his kind that nothing compares to the taste of a human one truly loves, he dismisses the idea entirely—until an overwhelming attraction to his classmate, Kiriyama, changes everything. Unable to resist, Kabutani takes a single taste of Kiriyama and instantly becomes hopelessly addicted to a flavor only this specific boy can provide. Now consumed by an insatiable craving, the once cold-hearted monster must decide just how far he will go to satisfy his dangerous new hunger. In a separate story, Haruta Mimatsumori is a shy university student and dedicated member of the track and field club who has long harbored a quiet crush on Yuichi Adachi, a former track star forced into early retirement by injury. When Adachi unexpectedly returns to coach Haruta’s team, the young athlete is presented with the perfect opportunity to get closer to his idol, though his timid nature makes acting on his feelings incredibly difficult. The collection also features an additional tale that further explores the intense dynamic between Kabutani and Kiriyama.
