    Summary

    Akira Kurusu wakes up as a pawn on the wrong side of the board.

    His face is no longer his own. His name, a weapon. His life, a performance.

    To protect the Phantom Thieves, he dons the mask of his rival—and finds himself trapped in a game rigged from the start.

    Across from him, Goro Akechi wears his body like a tailored suit, sharp and practiced, moving Phantom pieces with unsettling precision. But even kings bleed when cornered, and even knights can fall.

    They're both playing to win, but the rules keep changing.
    Justice isn't black and white. It's checkered.
    And somewhere in the middle of this endless match, two players begin to see each other not as opponents—but as mirrors.

    Because maybe this game was never about victory.
    Maybe its about survival.
