Platonic Chain: Ansatsu Jikkouchuu

This standalone work explores a subtly unsettling world built around a peculiar online system. Individuals can anonymously submit images of people they find irritating, accumulating a digital gallery. When a million photos of a single subject are amassed, the collective data triggers a dark transaction: a contract is fulfilled to eliminate that person for a substantial sum. The narrative centers on the implications of this anonymous power, examining how readily resentment and societal pressures can be weaponized. It delves into themes of anonymity, consequence, and the blurred lines between online expression and real-world action. The story unfolds with a quiet intensity, prompting reflection on the potential dangers lurking within seemingly harmless digital interactions.
