Aphorism is a survival-horror manga by Kujou Karuna.Welcome to Naraka High School, where every graduate is guaranteed a bright future. Graduates experience a huge improvement in social status and find that prestigious, coveted civil service jobs are within reach without ever needing to attend college. The only entry requirement: If you can see the floating island, you’re accepted.Rokudou Momiji is accepted.Rokudou Momiji is a boy who does not matter, an absolute nobody. He has never been smart enough, or athletic enough, or even tall enough. High school means a fresh start, and he's already met a girl he wants to impress. So on the first day of school, when the students are tasked with writing down "a character (kanji) that they will need for the future", he writes "change".And then everything goes to hell.Monsters start oozing up from the ground, and the students are forced to fight for their lives. The characters they have chosen will be their weapons: Momiji's "change" allows him to transform his appearance at will, and in times of danger, become a tall, beautiful superhuman. Other students with characters like "katana" or "spear" can literally turn their characters into weapons.When it's over, more than half the student population has been killed, and there's more: every time the floating island aligns with the sun, another "God's Blight"—the school's name for these incidents—will occur, and the students will once again have to fight for their survival. These incidents are literally as difficult to predict as the weather, and much like the students' new powers, the Blight will be based on a random kanji: maybe monsters once again, but anything from falling knives, balls of fire, or dancing pink elephants is possible. In the meantime nobody can leave the school grounds, although living is every student's choice in the end. Those who survive a year in this hellhole will be able to graduate and finally leave.Rokudou is terrified, but he has to be strong, if only for the sake of Hirasawa Aira, his new best friend and the girl he wants to impress. Other characters include his smart-alecky roommate Hinata Sanjuro, knuckle-headed delinquent Takamada, tall, graceful Noa, and a pair of twins who are…just plain weird.The Blight isn't the only thing these students have to worry about. There are people who will do anything to survive, while others are simply Ax-Crazy. To top it off, that mysterious being Rokudou can transform into? He’s connected to the history of the school, though no one is really sure just how.

Superpowered Evil Side: Krishna, for Rokudou. Subverted in that he's not really Rokudou and he's not evil but just uncaring of the fate of others. If you don't bother him and you don't mess with Rokudou, you'd probably be fine. Probably.

Wham Line: Chapter 25: Yama: "Oh I finally remember who he is now. He's Krishna, the guy who used to serve under me., which is swiftly followed by "I won't forgive anyone who hurts Yama." from the man in question. Chapter 26: "Hinata-kun, sorry about that but could you forget what I said just now?" *Krishna raises his BFS to Yama's throat* "Who are you? You are not Yama." "Uruma?" Subverted in chapter 41; when Uruma is speaking with Krishna, he asks directly if Krishna is Yama's son, and Krishna easily says that he is. Nobody who hears this confession is shocked at all, having already assumed that to be the case.

Wham Episode: Chapter 10. "They say death is the most beautiful thing." Chapter 37. The elder twin dies in a heartbreaking scene, sacrificing himself to revive their dead little sister. The younger twin breaks down when their revived sister asks him where's their elder brother. All these happens due to the Director deciding he's bored and wants to see something interesting, leading to a thoroughly enraged Rokudou who storms into his office to confront him. His anger affects their environment and "Yama", who collapses onto his knees, his fake appearance unravelled. Followed quickly by Chapter 38. Rokudou, or maybe Krishna, is a successor of Yama's and cannot be harmed by the acting Principal.

Superpower Lottery: You wouldn't think this applies as everyone's power is determined by themselves and whether they are smart enough to think of ways to use them, but Rokudou wins the lottery as even though he has the same word as Hirosue and the same ability as countless others before him, none of them can turn into another person who is Curb-Stomp Battle personified. Not to mention he is more or less immortal. Tomonaga stole Rokudou's heart and he came back as Krishna perfectly alright, though Krishna was working under a time limit to find a replacement heart before Rokudou's spirit becomes unable to return.

From a Single Cell: For Hakamada and possibly Inner!Rokudou when transformed. After it's revealed that Hakamada has this, it becomes a Funny Moment every time he uses it or someone mentions it. Examples include Hinata using him in his strategies to find out the ability of other students - by sending Hakamada out to anger people, baiting them into killing him - or nonchalantly throwing him off the building and making sure he's dead so Hakamada can recover from his grievous injuries.

The Ace: Subversion. Inner!Rokudou is faster and stronger than the real Momiji, not to mention the hottest guy in the story. He also likes to kill his opponents very messily (he spends most of his screen time covered in blood. It usually isn't his), is coming off a little obsessive in his devotion to Momiji, and then there's the little issue of nobody knowing who the hell he is. Generally, he's been just a bit creepy.

Freudian Excuse: Tomonaga's older brother was killed in Naraka High, after which he spent eight years digging through thousands of bodies at the dump site in order to find his brother's remains.

Dude Looks Like a Lady: Rokudou when the mangaka draws him in the old Chinese costumes. Also when he's sleeping on a bed presumably somewhere in his inner world, waited upon by Krishna. Unsettling Gender-Reveal: Poor, poor Hinata. To be fair, Mino does make a ridiculously pretty girl.

Next Sunday A.D.: Believe it or not, the series is set almost thirty years into the future. This is not at all obvious, since there's almost no technology seen, and those that do turn up seem no different from present day. The first hint is that Tomonaga's birthdate is stated to be in Heisei 33 (or 2022), thus implying that the main storyline takes place sixteen years later, in Heisei 49, or 2038. This is more or less confirmed by Chapter 12.5, which explicitly states that Tomonaga was six years old in Heisei 39 (2028).

An Arm and a Leg: Tomonaga is very fond of using this method to terrorize class 1.

What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?

What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?: Eco's word is "Love". We haven't really seen it in action. We did see it in action at the start, she was apparently drowning the monster in a sea of little hearts. Whether it was effective or not is debatable, but she did survive. Of course we have yet to see it in serious action. Well, given the fact that she's able to survive until now, it could be Heart Is an Awesome Power. Apparently it is Heart Is an Awesome Power according to newer chapters. She totally owns those monsters.
