Flowers of Evil

This dark, obsessive romance follows Kasuga Takao, a diligent student whose passion for Charles Baudelaire and his seminal collection Les Fleurs du mal (Flowers of Evil) shapes his worldview. One afternoon after classes, he secretly pockets the gym clothes of Saeki Nanako, the girl he idolizes. He soon learns that Nakamura Sawa, a girl he despises, witnessed the act. Nakamura then leverages this moment, forcing Kasuga into a contract and warning that she will reveal his secret if he refuses.
