Publisher's Summary[]
Original Summary[]
"I am The King of Distortion, and I reign over the distortion in depths of your heart. Until I can turn your distortion to gold, I will remain at your side." February 14th, St. Valentine's Day. Everyone assembled at an event to see the Moon Temple, a grotesque building towering over the center of the city, would soon be wrapped up in a constantly distorting world. As he whispers sweet words into everyone's ears, The King of Distortion claims that everything -- including this twisting, distorting world -- is a stairway to heaven. In addition to that, there was another strange shadow mixed into all this. "You finally showed up, huh? Boogiepop…!"
As two beings who dwelt within the hearts of people meet, the curtain rises on this never ending day.[1]
Seven Seas Summary[]
