Oftentimes, people are most vulnerable when they are lonely and unable to get along with those around them. Isolation is felt more keenly amongst a crowd, so some will try to find solace in the strangest of places, where the unknown lurks. Such people include Ayumu Aizawa, a former city boy now living in the countryside of Tana, and Kisa Tanigawa, a young girl who has a hard time relating to others. What these two share in common is a feeling that their life has gone astray.
Zettai Shounen tells a story of strange phenomena affecting two different settings, with no explanations of their origin or sudden appearance. All that is known is that these phenomena seem to center on individuals with mixed emotions toward themselves and others.
Great news for this guide! Zettai Shounen is a completely faithful adaptation of the original manga that contains no filler episodes.
You can enjoy all 26 episodes in chronological order with the peace of mind knowing that each chapter is canonical content that contributes directly to the development of the main story and character arcs. You don't need to skip any episodes to live the complete and authentic experience of Zettai Shounen.
