Tomie Synopsis
In a high school classroom, students mourn the loss of one of their own: Tomie Kawakami, who has been killed and dismembered. Surprised by the announcement of her death, the class is puzzled by the cruel fate that has fallen on one of them; such a radiant and beautiful girl did not deserve such a horrible death. However, everything changes when a surprisingly familiar student opens the door to the classroom. Beautiful, slim, and with a mole under her left eye, Tomie smiles and apologizes for being late.
But this will only be the beginning of the mysteries that surround this girl. Men unlucky enough to be instantly interested in her are also victims of a dark urge to murder her, to which they often succumb. And each time, Tomie returns from death to continue her favorite hobby: playing with men.
