The Other me

Renji Aoyama is the kind of person everyone likes but no one remembers. He has talent but lacks consistency, jumping between hobbies, ambitions, and routines, always quitting before he can master anything. Surrounded by friends who excel in their own fields, Renji believes he could be great—if only he had discipline. If only he had focus.

Then he watches a movie about a blind girl whose split personality could \"see.\" The idea grips him. If the mind can create something beyond its limits, what’s stopping him from doing the same? He dives into research, experimenting with methods to bring out a \"perfect\" version of himself. But nothing happens.

Or so he thinks.

One day, he hears a voice—his voice, but sharper, more confident, more refined. At first, it feels like an older brother guiding him. The new personality, who he names Shin, helps him in ways he never imagined—acing tests, handling social situations, and fixing the flaws Renji always hated about himself.

But as the days pass, Renji begins to question: Who is really in control? And if Shin is everything Renji should have been… then what does that make him?

As his sense of self starts to unravel, Renji will discover that Shin’s existence isn’t as simple as he thought. Because this \"new\" personality?

He may have been there all along.
