When The Ayakashi Come Out And Play!

When Haruka Kitazawa bumps into the enigmatic Ayako Towada, her life veers down an unexpected course. Ayako introduces Haruka to her nephew, Takumi, a seemingly aloof classmate nursing a unique and uncanny secret. Takumi and his aunt bear an unusual gift—the ability to perceive ayakashi, spectral creatures that straddle the boundary between this realm and the one beyond.

As Haruka and Takumi grapple with their newfound reality and their burgeoning relationship, they must learn to draw strength from each other and those around them to confront their most profound fears and insecurities. Amid the turmoil of adolescence and the mysteries of an unseen world, they strive to chart distinct paths and transform the messiness of youth into their own fairy tale of self-discovery and empowerment.
