Souichi's a godawful brat but he's also quite the interesting character. He's got the whims of a kid and he's not the good guy, two things which aren't common for a Ito-sensei MC. I couldn't even really dislike him because he'd occasionally just be relatable. In addition, he's a character we've already met in Voices In The Dark and New Voices In The Dark even though it was under.... different circumstances, let's leave it at that. Again, Ito-sensei manages to mix comedy into his horror! Reading episodes of the lives of a family and classroom where there's this weirdo kid who really believes he can put curseson people, with a bit of the otherworldly added in for drama, was very enjoyable.

I especially like the "terrifying inhuman model" character, Fuchi. Seeing her here explains her appearance in the Voices In The Dark books I guess. I really wish we could learn more about her? Like, how did she get into that magazine even? Why exactly does Souichi imagine himself marrying her in the other books? Because from the cliffhanger endings of the stories here you wouldn't be blamed if you believed she killed him.
