Kasuga's first encounter at the bookstore
In *Flowers of Evil* episode 1, a schoolboy in uniform walks alone into a somewhat messy, old bookstore. He heads straight to the manga section and picks up a volume with a striking cover. The lighting inside is dim, the shelves are crowded, and a silent old man seems to be sitting behind the counter. The boy flips through the pages with a complex expression.
