Synopsis
Employee tutors eerie prodigy, uncovering dark secrets and supernatural danger in powerful family's home.
When Mr. Sato, a dedicated employee at the world's largest electronics company, receives an unexpected promotion opportunity, he jumps at the chance. His new assignment: serve as a private tutor to his boss's son, Ichiro Matsushita—a quiet, brilliant child who seems wise beyond his years. As Sato begins his new role, he quickly senses something isn't quite right in the Matsushita household. The previous tutor has vanished without explanation, and young Ichiro possesses an unsettling intensity that makes Sato question what he's gotten himself into. The boy's vast knowledge of obscure subjects and his peculiar behavior hint at depths far more complex than a typical child prodigy. What started as a straightforward tutoring job soon becomes a psychological game of cat and mouse, as Sato realizes his young student may be far more dangerous than anyone could have imagined. In this dark tale where ambition meets the supernatural, an ordinary man finds himself caught in a web of secrets that challenges everything he thought he knew about power, knowledge, and the price of success.
When Mr. Sato, a company employee at the worlds largest electrics company, is called upon by his Boss to tutor his only son in exchange for a high ranking position within the organization, things couldn't have been peachier. At least, that's what he thought... Little did he know that his student to be was Ichiro Matsushita, a young boy with the mind of a genius and a terrifying hidden agenda. It doesn't take long for Sato to realize that he is the second home tutor in as many weeks that has been sent to teach the little boy. What's even more unnerving is that the previous Tutor's whereabouts appear to be a mystery... The little boy's true identity is revealed when he puts Sato under a curse, turning him into a lizard man and making him one of servants. Little Ichiro Matsushita is none other than "Akuma-kun" boy genius and master of black magic. His goal? to open the portal between hell and earth, summon forth hell's most powerful demons, and enlist their help in taking over the world!
