Synopsis for The Dangers in My Heart
Kyoutaro Ichikawa may look like your typical high school student, but in his heart he dreams of murder. So it’s no wonder the person he most wants to kill is never far from his mind: class idol Anna Yamada. Reading alone in the library of her beloved school, he accidentally runs into Yamada, who comes to secretly gorge on her beloved sweets and candies. Through her interactions, Ichikawa finds out how dumb Yamada is, and can’t help but support her from the sidelines. Meanwhile, Yamada herself can’t help but relentlessly taunt Ichikawa due to her giddy reactions. Through a series of heartwarming everyday interactions, their distant bond becomes more than just library acquaintances. Perhaps, in time, Ichikawa will come to realize that his murderous desires have turned into something else entirely.
