Description
What would have happened if I had not made a mistake at that time…? After my “confession” in middle school, I fell out of contact with my best friend and childhood friend, lost my place in class, and even quit soccer, which I was working hard to become a professional at. After entering high school, I spent most of my time at home playing video games instead of going to school. But one day, about two months later, a teacher came to my house… The teacher, who called himself Kiritani Kakeru, seemed to be a graduate of this Seiran High School. And it seemed that there was a time when he didn’t go to school just like me. However, he changed when he met someone who made him realize the importance of being oneself. It made me wonder if I could do it too…?

My Thoughts on Shamer
Alright, let's talk about "Shamer." I jumped into this one with a bit of anticipation, mainly because I'd heard some buzz around it being connected to another work, "Goodbye Sengen." While I haven't personally read "Goodbye Sengen" yet, the connection definitely piqued my interest.
First Impressions
The initial chapters pulled me in fairly quickly. The school life setting is familiar, but the drama woven into the narrative felt fresh enough to hold my attention. The fact that it's based on a song is a really cool concept, and I was curious to see how that would translate into a full-fledged story.
What Works Well
I think the core of what makes "Shamer" appealing is its emotional depth. The author does a solid job of exploring the characters' vulnerabilities and internal conflicts. I found myself genuinely invested in their journeys, especially as the story progressed. The romantic elements, while present, didn't overshadow the other aspects of the plot, which I appreciated. It felt like a well-rounded narrative that balanced drama, romance, and the challenges of navigating school life.

Final Verdict
Overall, I'd say "Shamer" is a worthwhile read, especially if you enjoy stories with a strong emotional core and a blend of drama and romance. While I can't speak to the connection with "Goodbye Sengen" directly, the fact that it's recommended as a precursor suggests that it might enrich the experience. Just be aware that the ending might leave you wanting more, potentially leading you to seek out "Elite" for further resolution. I'd give it a solid recommendation for anyone looking for a complete and engaging school life drama.
