Akitake Sarada: The Regretful Girl and the Festival Night
One day, Sakaguchi encounters a strange entity flipping over wooden floorboards in a deserted old school building. At first, he dismisses it, thinking it was just his imagination. However, the next day, while returning to the same spot to look for a lost item, he sees it for sure. ‘It’ is glaring at him from beneath his feet (Episode 1). Every night, the boy runs away from a giant creature resembling a centipede. Trembling with fear, the boy suddenly senses the presence of ‘It’ breaking the silence from under the covers (Episode 2). ‘It,’ a mysterious being said to come to collect a price, has appeared to me as well. Ten years ago, I was helped by ‘It’ by chance. Although it should have been forgotten by now, ‘It’ appears around me every three or seven years since the incident, reminding me of the day I owed it. Rather than live a life with a limited time left and despair, I decide to get rid of it (Episode 3). Sakaguchi, the boy, and I—the three of us—received help from Matsuribi Saya in moments of desperate peril. This mysterious girl, who already knows the innermost details of its true nature, instantly resolves the problem that had shaken the lives of the three people. She then makes a request they cannot refuse: to spend a night with a legendary monster to save her brother. On the night of the festival, when the death of Matsuribi Saya's brother, Genichiro, is foreseen, she and the three set off for the village's old tunnel, the site of the decisive battle. In this mysterious place where no cell phone signal can be picked up and no trace of human life remains, will they be able to reverse the girl's regrets? “Would you like to hear my story?” An unprecedented variation of horror!
