1 Peji Saki, Kimyo Wo Migi Hokodesu. Katsumi Futaro Works (HARTA)

[Machine Translation] The moment this "normal" collapses, the world turns on you. One day, when the water gets a little harder... One day, your late wife will talk to you in the form of a tattoo. Katsumi Futaro, a rising star who created a sensation with "Kimagure na mizu" ("Whimsical Water"), which recorded 23.9 million impressions on SNS, depicts a strange story that begins with a "slight discrepancy" that could happen to anyone. In this collection, the boundaries between human and non-human, reality and fiction, past, present, and future ooze and slowly erode. Funny, sad, scary, and somehow warm, this is the author's first collection of science fiction works. After reading this book, the way you see your everyday life will change slightly. Six stories that touch on such "cracks in the world" are included in this collection.

その"当たり前"が崩れた瞬間、世界は牙をむく。ある日、水が少しだけ硬くなったら――。ある日、亡き妻が"入れ墨"になって語りかけてきたら――。ある日、過去や未来の自分と出会えたら――。SNSで2,390万インプレッションを記録した『きまぐれな水』で話題を呼んだ新星・勝見ふうたろーが描くのは、誰の身にも起こり得る"ほんの少しのズレ"から始まる奇妙な物語。収録作では、人間と非人間、現実と虚構、過去と現在と未来、その境界がにじみ、じわりと侵食していきます。滑稽で、切なくて、怖くて、どこか温度のある著者初のSF作品集。読み終えたあと、あなたの日常の見え方がわずかに変わる。そんな"世界のほころび"に触れる6編を収録。
