Goto marches forward relentlessly to discover the identity of his tormentor, the man who had Goto locked up in a private prison for ten long years without ever telling him why. But Goto's nemesis wants Goto to find him, and meet they do, where Goto's enemy reveals his identity and gives Goto clues that suggest this decade-long ordeal stems from a long-forgotten schoolyard grudge. But there's more to this cruel game, and Goto's friends may end up in the morgue if he doesn't agree to continue the game - in sudden death!

Garon Tsuchiya is a manga writer who is best known for Old Boy, with artist Nobuaki Minegishi, which won an Eisner Award in 2007 and was adapted in mystery-thriller noir film by director Park Chan-wook. His other credits include Astral Project and Reverse Edge: Ōkawabata Tanteisha.
Nobuaki Minegishi is a manga artist. He is best known as the illustrator of the acclaimed manga Old Boy, which was adapted into the award-winning movie Oldboy by Park Chan-wook. In 2007 Old Boy won the Eisner Award for Best U.S. Edition of International Material—Japan. Minegishi has also worked on series such as Aburemon, Jungle, Tenpai, Hoozuki, Joi Reika, and Maboroshi No Kakero.
Tsuchiya and Minegishi's epic whydunit (whodunit has been shown since volume 1 and known by his victim since volume 2) comes to a crunch when, although Goto's adversary, the who in question, wins the loser-dies game he proposed in volume 4, and the victory doesn't deliver the ecstasy he had hoped for. So a new round opens. Goto still has to recall what he did that led his enemy to have him secretly imprisoned for 10 years. But the stakes are different: if Goto fails again, someone he loves will die before he does. The visual continuum is as noirish as ever. Olson, Ray
