Happy Sugar Life
A psychological horror romance that frames obsessive love as both tender and monstrous, trapping the viewer inside a protagonist's escalating delusion.
Satou Matsuzaka, a girl who has never loved anyone before, falls in love with a girl named Shio Koube. The two girls are drawn to each other, and begin a happy life together. Satou won't let anyone endanger their new life, and would do anything for love, even if it means threatening, confining, or killing someone.
