SENTAKU/ Shogo Iwaya

～Synopsis～
"I'm sick of it. I'll kill you. I'll definitely kill you." That night, Ryo ran out of the house, carrying a knife. In order to go find his father, who treated his mother badly, and kill him. I was running out of breath. And he hated the injustice of the world. However, on the way, Ryo saves a middle school student who was about to throw himself off a pedestrian bridge. It was his childhood friend Kyohei.Eventually, the two boys are swallowed up by a gigantic, gloomy society. Ten years later, Ryo, who has nowhere to go, gradually finds himself in a special group of fraudsters. A new story that fully depicts the dark oppression that covers this country to the point where it becomes impossible to breathe. The ruthless reality that these two people faced, who had worked hard to survive each day, and what they saw beyond that.

[Shogo Iwaya comment]
I have been writing "SENTAKU" for four years. This work is my soul itself. That's why I kept writing until I was satisfied with it, and four years passed, which is by no means a short time. If you read the opening sentence, I think you will understand my determination as a writer.

Life is a series of choices. No matter what happens, as long as you are alive, there is a future ahead of you and there is hope. I hope that this work will be like the moon that gently illuminates nights when you feel lonely. I hope this work will reach the hearts of many people.
