Mankitsu

A collection of nine short stories by Shinsaku Kurosugi, each exploring different encounters and relationships. The tales range from a father and daughter sharing a small room to a teacher having a brief moment with a student, and from a sandwich shop encounter to a hostess club. Other stories involve dangerous part-time jobs, a charismatic figure, and a fitting room meeting.

Each story delves into intimate and often taboo situations, focusing on the dynamics between the characters. The narratives are driven by desire, secrecy, and the consequences of crossing boundaries, presenting a variety of adult themes without a single overarching plot.
