01 / THE GUIDE
Story
Tulip Prison is described as a “special penitentiary filled with criminals from all over Japan” that stands alone on the open sea, making escape impossible. Shuichiro Minato’s arrest stems from a public nuisance claim, and his courtroom self‑expression as art leads to a ten‑year sentence.
The narrative positions the prison as a “phantom precinct” of the justice system, emphasizing its role as an inescapable island dungeon where monsters wear human skin. Survival hinges on navigating this bleak environment and confronting the unknown threats within.
- Observe the prison’s layout early to understand its isolation.
- Consider the story’s tone when setting personal expectations.
