Summary
Punching out a certain asshole who didn't know how to respect women lands Akira in juvenile detention. And it's an authoritarian shithole, but at least there's one good thing here: Ryuji.
(prequel to Out the Barrel of a Gun. Not necessary to read this to get that.)

Summary
Subtitled: "Murders and Feelings and Manipulation" or, "Persona 5 except everyone is a rotten adult now."
Akira is a vigilante with a military history. Along with Ryuji, his best friend since juvie, he assassinates deserving targets to help Futaba get revenge for her mother's murder.
Then he impulsively sends an unsolicited dick pic to the popular mystery novelist Goro Akechi—and Akechi replies. Akechi is secretive to the extreme, but to be fair, Akira is lying to him about everything, too.
Oh, and Prime Minister Masayoshi Shido is in his second term, and slowly turning the nation toward fascism.
