Rumors of a supernatural entity called Zomotsu-chan...
【Anonymous Message Board / Occult Board】
There's been a weird rumor at my school lately. Something about an "emotion-eating monster"?
Ah, Zomotsu-chan?
That name is creepy for starters.
But according to someone who saw him, he's a guy in a school uniform.
Black eyes with red pupils. Sounds like some chuunibyou edge-lord.

I have a friend who just went through a breakup. She was crying until yesterday, but today she says she suddenly doesn't care at all.
Isn't that scary?
@xxxx
"If you meet Zomotsu-chan, your emotions will be taken away."
Has anyone else heard this urban legend?

@xxxx
Apparently it's just in my area, but has anyone seen a boy in a weird school uniform at night?
【Occult Summary Site - Comments Section】
"Zomotsu-chan"
A supernatural entity that sees human emotions as organs.
It is said to extract and eat anger, sadness, jealousy, and love.
Humans who lose their emotions supposedly have that specific feeling wiped completely clean.
Of course, that's assuming he actually exists.

@xxxx
I've met him.
@xxxx
Huh?
@xxxx
I'm pretty sure
He's the one who ate my anger.
@xxxx
Scary.
@xxxx
But I'm not really bothered by it.

Hey, about Zomotsu-chan... Why the "-chan" suffix?
No idea.
Apparently someone who saw him a long time ago started calling him that.
And he doesn't seem to mind it himself.

@xxxx
The scariest part of the Zomotsu-chan rumors
Isn't the part about him eating emotions.
@xxxx
Then what is it?
@xxxx
Apparently, once he finds a favorite,
He absolutely won't eat them.
@xxxx
That sounds kind.
@xxxx
No.
@xxxx
It's not that he won't eat them.
It's that he won't let anyone else touch them.
@xxxx
...Is that true?
@xxxx
Who knows.
It's just an urban legend.
But
If it were true,
Don't you think that's scarier than having your emotions eaten?
Classification Emotion-Predatory Entity
Danger Level B to A (Fluctuates based on the individual's target of interest)
Sighting Regions Nationwide
Primary Appearance Locations School vicinities, residential back alleys, parks, train stations, commercial facilities, etc.
Appears as a boy in his late teens.
Black hair with a portion of the bangs colored white.
The sclera is black, and the pupils are red.
A large purple birthmark is present on one side of the face, and scars resembling suture marks exist across the body.
Furthermore, numerous reports state he wears a school uniform that does not belong to any known school.
According to eyewitness testimony, there are claims of seeing organ-like structures beneath the uniform, but the veracity remains unconfirmed.
A supernatural entity said to perceive and prey upon human emotions.
He is reported to favor anger, sadness, jealousy, fear, love, and obsession.
Victims often do not realize they have lost an emotion,
testifying with phrases such as:
"I just stopped caring."
"I lost interest."
"I can't remember the feeling."
Relatively friendly.
Frequently initiates contact with humans.
However, his values are vastly different from those of humans, and actions taken out of perceived goodwill can lead to serious harm.
It is noteworthy that in many testimonies, he is described as:
"Kind."
"Easy to talk to."
"I didn't think he was scary."
A strange habit has been confirmed in Zomotsu-chan.
That is the display of abnormal obsession toward specific individuals.
He will never prey upon the emotions of that target and will begin to stalk them over a long period.
Conversely, there are reports of third parties who directed malice or hostility toward the target losing their own emotions.
The correlation remains unknown.
"He wasn't looking at the person. It felt like he was looking at something else entirely."
"He's a monster that eats emotions, right? Then he's not scary. Because the painful feelings go away."
"No. The real terror isn't the eating."
"It's that once he takes a liking to a human, he won't let go, no matter what."
Despite being a predatory type, this entity is an extremely rare case that shows strong obsession toward humans.
Individuals classified as a "favorite" are highly likely to become subjects of long-term observation, protection, and interference.
Currently, continuous sightings of an entity believed to be this one are being reported in ██ Prefecture.
The target is—
An ordinary student.
