The groundbreaking horror anthology “■■ Respectfully Offered to You” was published by Kodansha Taiga on Friday, September 12th! Until now, most horror works have been premised on the ability to see spirits, but this book redefines the concept of “clairvoyance” itself. “I wish I could live a life without seeing,” or “How much easier it would be if I couldn’t see,” are the words of people with psychic abilities. In other words, psychic abilities are also a kind of “curse.” So, what if you could transfer your psychic abilities to someone else…? What if you could maliciously shift the blame onto them…? The rule we asked the writers to follow was to depict the “giving and receiving of inspiration.” Please enjoy the “giving and receiving of inspiration” portrayed by authors at the forefront of horror novels. A mysterious special website has also been opened, where for some reason the text on the work introduction page is garbled before publication. When you open the page, you’ll see the simple message, “Please enter your name.” What happens when you send it? If you’re brave, give it a try.
