Master artisan Kuroda fashioned beings known as Hybrid Children—entities that are neither mere machines nor dolls but the living echo of affection poured into them. Though they possess human‑like feelings and their own awareness, they are not true humans and must be nurtured with love to thrive.
The young scion Kotarou Izumi of the prestigious Izumi house faces disapproval whenever he brings a discarded Hybrid Child, which he names Hazuki, into the family"s residence. His relatives repeatedly try to dispose of Hazuki when Kotarou is distracted, yet each failed attempt cements their connection. Despite the family's attempts to discard Hazuki, every effort strengthens the affection and bond that binds them. After a decade, a chilling truth emerges: a Hybrid Child"s existence may not be infinite.
Hybrid Children is an anthology of three brief love tales that illustrate the connection between these crafted souls and their caretakers, showing how affection shapes destiny.
