Kamen Catharsis

Yuuko serves as the Vice President of the Student Council, presenting herself to the world through a composed and unshakable exterior. To her peers and colleagues, she is the picture of calm authority. However, concealed beneath this carefully maintained facade is a deeply personal secret that she guards with absolute desperation. Her primary concern is ensuring that this hidden truth never reaches the ears of Hasumi, the council’s flamboyant and highly expressive President, whose vibrant personality stands in stark contrast to Yuuko’s reserved nature. The delicate balance Yuuko has constructed for herself faces its greatest test as Christmas Eve approaches. The festive atmosphere and heightened emotions of the holiday threaten to strip away her defenses, placing immense pressure on the walls she has built around her true self. As the night draws near, the central question becomes how much longer she can sustain her illusion. With every passing moment, the risk of her mask fracturing grows ever more severe, leaving her vulnerable to an exposure that could fundamentally alter her relationship with Hasumi and shatter the quiet control she has always relied upon.
