This is the beginning of a series about Shinpei, who goes back home for the funeral of his friend only to discover that she was murdered by a monster that's terrorizing their island home and that he's essentially living Groundhog's Day. Every time he dies, he's taken back to July 22 and the cycle starts over again. This was super interesting. I really liked the characters and I want to know more about the reason for these monsters and why Shinpei is time traveling or looping. I'm disappointed that the anime series for it is only available in Japan right now. I'm hoping Disney will expand that to the US soon so I can watch it, but for now, I'll see if I can find the next volumes of the story. I really want to keep reading this.
