Beautiful Bones -Sakurako's Investigation-

Bone-obsessed forensic consultant Sakurako helps police investigations while student Shoutarou keeps her focused on the case and away from especially tempting specimens.

Synopsis
The Anime Lad

Sakurako Kujou is fascinated by bones, whether they come from animals or humans. She also assists the police as a forensic consultant and has developed a reputation for encountering corpses. Young Shoutarou Tatewaki accompanies her and helps keep each investigation on track. He also discourages her from borrowing specimens, a duty omitted from most detective partnerships.

Super Eyepatch Fox

Sakurako studies bones and applies that knowledge while assisting police investigations. Human remains become evidence she can examine with intense professional focus. Shoutarou works beside her, contributing to the sleuthing while preventing her fascination from overtaking the case. Their partnership joins forensic curiosity with a persistent need for practical boundaries.

Sakurako’s obsession means bones are never anonymous background objects. They are the center of her work and the first place she looks for evidence. Shoutarou makes the partnership click because he can investigate while also pulling her attention back from a specimen she finds too interesting. Every case begins with their completely different reactions to the same discovery!

Father's Basement

A brilliant specialist paired with a more grounded assistant is standard mystery machinery. Sakurako’s fixation gives the formula a sharper edge. She is professionally useful to the police and personally tempted by the remains she studies. Shoutarou therefore has to support the investigation while making sure the evidence does not become part of her collection.

Most young women have lots of obsessions, but Sakurako Kujou only has two: work and bones… and since the bones are part of her work, it really comes down to just bones. However, in between collecting de-fleshed animal and human remains for her studies, Sakurako also assists the local police as a forensic consultant, where she's developed a formidable reputation as both a corpse magnet and detective.
