Miroku-san, the legendary slit-mouth woman, faces a crisis of existence in a modern world that has forgotten the power of urban legends. To maintain her powers, she must marry a high school student named Kouichi Sano, whose family has been responsible for upkeeping superstitions for generations. While Miroku is reluctant to depend on a human, Kouichi seems more than willing to follow through with the engagement—but his true motivations remain a mystery. In Kajimoto Akari's charming Even If You Slit My Mouth (2020), the two establish a unique contract: they will act as though they are married for a trial period of one year. If Miroku can manage to truly scare Kouichi during this time, the engagement will be broken. The story follows their exciting and often comedic life as the monster girl tries to regain her legendary status while being at the mercy of her unusually composed fiancé. Now complete, this supernatural romance is a must-read for fans of quirky monster-girl comedies.
