Daigo Agawa is a police officer and he is dispatched to the small mountain village of Kuge after the local officer Osamu Kano went missing. He moves there with his wife Yuki and their daughter Mashiro. The villagers in Kuge welcome Daigo Agawa and his family kindly with open arms. The very day he arrives, the corpse of the village leading family's matriarch, Gin Goto who had gone missing is discovered in the mountains by her grandson Keisuke. The other Gotos insist that she was killed by a bear, but, after checking her body, Daigo notices teeth marks from a human that couldn't be self inflicted. As he stays to investigate the murder the village reveals more and more oddities, the people seem to know everything about everyone, there is a lack of children. Not to mention there is a strange man roaming the place at night, over two meters tall and reeking of death, who the Goto family adress as "That Person" privately, but denies exists to others.Written and illustrated by Masaaki Ninomiya, the series was serialized from October 5, 2018, to November 26, 2021. It has since been published in 13 volumes. A live action drama series was released on Disney+ on December 28, 2022. Season 1 adapts the first half of the manga, and season 2 will adapt the rest. The special chapter B of the manga was released in celebration of the Drama's release.

Cursed with Awesome: That Person got afflicted with Kuru at 6 years old and is over 75. Since Kuru kills it's victims within two years, Doctor Nakamura theorizes that That Person has a new strain of the disease that isn't fatal to the host.

Even Evil Has Standards: In the drama Mutsuo has a little dog held to a shotgun to get his owner, Doctor Nakamura, to do what he wants. When he’s done he lets both live, when he could easily dispose of them both.

Scatterbrained Senior: According to her family, Gin Goto was demented and getting worse by the day, eventually wandering off never to return as they found her corpse 3 days later. They aren't lying, but she didn't have dementia, she had Kuru.

The Conspiracy
 Gannibal (Manga) / int_5b8c285b
comment
The Conspiracy: Daigo comes to believe that the Gotos eat people and when the villagers refuse to help him in his investigations he starts to think that the entire village is in on it. He can't tell the police about it, because the chief grew up in there so he thinks he’s in on it too. He's wrong, the chief is trying to bust the Goto family but Daigo's investigation is messing with his own.

He Knows Too Much: Osamu Kano found the place where the Gotos keep the sacrificial children, unfortunatly, that’s where That Person is kept most of the time so anyone who finds it is dealt with.

comment
Love Hungry: Gin was seemingly this, everyone in town spoke kindly of her but secretly feared and resented her, too afraid of her and her family to voice their true feelings. She tricked her grandsons into believing their mother didn’t love them, hoping to redirect the love they had for their mom to her.

Close-Knit Community: The villagers in Kuge look after one another. This is shown to come with drawbacks, as when Daigo shows the slightest irritation towards their ways, he almost becomes a social pariah. As they say; in this village everyone, knows everything about everyone.

Harmful to Minors: Daigo shot a pedophile that held Mashiro hostage, but since he was holding Mashiro close the entire time, when he was shot she ended up getting pieces of brain in her mouth. She looked at her father saying she could taste blood and passed out. Since that day, Mashiro has not spoken a word.

Human Sacrifice: According to priest Kamiyama, hundreds of years ago the village had problems with the harvest as the earth was unsuitable for farming. So to decrease the number of mouths to feed, they'd sacrifice children to the gods by burning them alive. Nowadays they just burn decorated effigies.
