Opening the Door to The Grudge

[Not a wish-fulfillment story, no harem, no formulaic plot, no brainless characters, no invincible protagonist] Read with caution if these aren't for you.

When the hero thinks he's an upright gentleman,

memories remind him that he's a scumbag.

When the heroine thinks she's found love,

time will tell her he only loves himself.

When the hero and heroine think they'll escape the haunted realm,

their lives are only just beginning.

In the end, they come to understand one truth:

Karma comes around, and life and death turn in a cycle.

People never truly die.

Only the body perishes.

The soul enters the next path of existence and lives on.

An endless cycle…
