Description
Komen Fuufu, also known by its full title The Dishonest Masked Couple, is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Iwatobi Neko and published by Futabasha. The story blends romance and supernatural elements, falling into the josei demographic.
The narrative follows Rokusuke and Kohaku, two deeply flawed individuals who have each been taken advantage of and then discarded by others when they were no longer considered useful. The two form a relationship built on deception, becoming a dishonest masked couple. As the story progresses over its chapters, the facade of their arrangement begins to shift as genuine feelings start to develop between them.
The setting alternates between the human world and the world of yokai, supernatural creatures from Japanese folklore. A significant plot element involves the relationship between a tanuki, a shape-shifting raccoon dog, and the human woman he brought into the yokai realm. Kohaku's personal history includes a deep desire to have children, a wish that is central to her backstory. The series explores themes of exploitation, emotional healing, and the difficulties of moving past a painful history. A notable narrative arc delves into Rokusuke's past, which is followed by a parallel arc exploring Kohaku's own tragic backstory, revealing how both were manipulated and abandoned. As the story approaches a turning point, the focus shifts toward whether the pair can move past their mutual dishonesty and truly fall in love.
