Grotesque e no Shoutai

A boy named Yusaku, whose father works at the local police station, meets a girl named Neri on the beach and they become friends. Neri possesses a strange and dangerous ability—whenever she says "I love spiders," she transforms into a spider, and if she says "I love lizards," she turns into a lizard. The story was originally published in *Gekkan Shounen Jump* in September 1981 and later collected in volume 7 of *Tiger Books*.
