The Beach has turned into a killing ground as Aguni and his men use the witch-hunt game as an excuse to take out everyone in sight. on the day that arisu wishes he could be anywhere but in his own life, where he is constantly compared - and found lesser - to his younger brother, the three friends witness strange fireworks in the sky.

Not that that really matters either - I wasn’t hoping to read a modern manga retelling of that story anyway, and there are other books to come so maybe it becomes clearer as the series progresses. Arisu and his friends must race to understand the logic behind the game and identify the real witch before they join the growing pile of Aguni’s victims!

The story is way more intriguing than I though and look solidly build, of course a series like that is, for me at least, in good part about the why, so the ending, when it will come, could play a major role in my final appreciation.Along with his friends, the goofball Chota and juvenile delinquent Karube, the three of them spend their time drinking, getting into typical schoolboy trouble and sometimes pondering what to do with their lives next.

The opening can be slow, and some of the faces are a little wonky, but once it gets going it's well worth the adventure.
