Synopsis

As the cicadas chirp on a hot summer day, a man prepares to hang himself in his apartment. Unable to follow through with his plan, he lazes about and watches television to pass the time. However, when a special program about seafood from Hokkaido comes on, the man realizes that he has never once eaten crab. Determined to partake in the luxurious cuisine before his life ends, the man plans to travel to Hokkaido using the last of his money.

Unfortunately, the trip costs a bit more than he expected. Unemployed and lacking any valuable possessions to speak of, the man ponders taking out a loan. While wandering around lost in thought, he bumps into a high-class housewife. Taking notice of the grand diamond ring on her finger, the man makes up his mind. Deciding that robbery is his best bet, he trails the woman and forces himself into her house. And yet, before he even has the chance to extort her valuables from her, the woman offers him both her cash and her body.

Yukionna to Kani wo Kuu left a strong aftertaste after reading for me. Yukionna means snow woman based on Japanese folklore. The female main protagonist Ayame was called a Yukionna probably due to the mysteries surrounding her. The male main protagonist Kita and Ayame both seek death by suicide for their personal struggles. They meet in an unlikely scenario and decide to not die until they travel to Wakkanai in Hokkaido, the northernmost city in Japan, and taste the king crab.

The series is made for adults with a lot of sex scenes. Even though the overall feeling is sad for this manga, there ...

I read this out of whim. I was baited for it being a Smut Manga. The first chapter made me question what I just read, then when I continued reading the hooker pulled me into a bittersweet adventure between a suicidal man and a housewife.

Without getting too much into details, as I know there are other reviews out there that ...

I felt awful for the ML while reading this manga since he was suicidal as a result of a sexual assault case in which he was found not guilty and his family abandoned him.

Yes, she is cheating on her author husband, whom she does not love, according to what you read. This manga is supposed to be dark, but as I got halfway through the novel and they went on their "adventures," I didn't find the story to be very emotional. It's ...
