Promise Me You’ll Smile at Yourself
There’s someone
who’s always been enchanted by your smile.In a single day… we greet many people and ask how they are, “How are you? Are you well?”
In a single day… we admire and encourage many, “You’re amazing, truly great!”
In a single day… we thank and apologize to many, “Sorry for causing you trouble.”
And in a single day… we smile at many people.But what about us—have we received a smile back?
We keep giving these things to others so habitually
that sometimes we forget to think
that we need these things too.…Promise me that from now on, you won’t forget yourself.

Purgatorio
This is a world caught between life and death, following the outbreak of a parasitic virus that directly attacks the human nervous system and brain.
All infected victims rise with strange behavior, growling like wild beasts,
their eyes clouded white like filthy water,
attacking anyone in front of them—even family members.Prin, an 18-year-old teenage girl, struggles to survive among the infected in her apartment.
But it’s like jumping from the frying pan into the fire as the city she once knew is filled with corpses feeding on the living in broad daylight.Fortunately, Prin is saved by Kanjanicha, a second-year nursing student, who is searching for safety with her father.
As days pass, humanity fails to control the outbreak,
forcing survivors to live in a world overrun by dead bodies.Amidst this, as people lose their humanity and fight for survival each day with only faint hope,
they find that confronting fellow humans can be far worse than death itself.
