MAO

Eight years after Nanoka Kiba survived the fatal wreck at Gogyō Town Shopping Center, she is irresistibly drawn to a shuttered corridor of shops along her walk home from school. That pull propels her into Japan's Taishō era, where she meets Mao, an enigmatic wanderer whose arrival in a village haunted by spirits unfolds in parallel with her own journey. Side by side, they chase the uncanny phenomena that surround them, and Nanoka gradually pieces together the fractured memories of the accident, uncovering a troubling convergence between her fate and Mao's.
