Ugly Hood, Hierarchical society due to religious status, aliens, and terrorists
In the Ugly Hood worldview, people all
commonly believe in the one god, Yamanus, and the world moves based on the
faith in God. According to the level of faith, people have different classes,
and they discriminate against the lower positioned ones. Even when this
happens, people take it for granted. This is already enough stage for the event
to unfold, but the artist adds one more setting here.
The fact is that the identity of the only
god, Yamanus, is actually an alien and that the officials of the ruling class,
the high-level churches, are also aliens. In fact, in the Ugly Hood worldview, ordinary
people were dominated by aliens.
Now that we had a brief look at the background,
where the story will be unfolded, let's find out the main character who will
lead the story. The hero 'Elsa Briant' is a D-class believer, and a student
studying at Yamaspin high school, 1st grade. In school, he's always doped off
and sullen, so nobody cares. However, he has a hidden figure as an 'Ugly Hood'
who has a bad reputation as a terrorist. He attacks the churches with
unbelievable physical ability as a human and even easily wins against
Yasungdan(Group of paladin called from the god, Yamanus).
One of the charms of this work is the
humor. As the material itself is quite heavy, the story can be serious, but the
humor with various parody and the artist's senses adjusts balance so that the
story is not too heavy.
As the story progresses, a variety of baits
are sprinkled with anti-social groups called Names, the death of Elsa's mother,
the identity of the Yasungdan, and the secret of Sen, a neighbor, and school
teacher. Therefore, it is a work that I could look forward to seeing how the
story develops.
