Overview

A curse that binds past and present. Mao, a young mystic who lives in the Taisho period of early 1900s Japan, is a mysterious onmyoji who, after suffering a life-altering curse, has continued to live for nine hundred long years. His world becomes even stranger when he meets Nanoka Kiba, a junior high schooler who seems to have traveled from the future. In spite of her tender years, Nanoka has lived a strange life herself, marked by her traumatic experience as a young child losing both her parents to a grisly accident. But when Nanoka decides to return to that fateful shopping arcade, she is transported to another time and place - a world where supernatural ayakashi thrive in an era long before her own. There she meets Mao, whose abrupt and bizarre question prompts Nanoka to see herself and her curious life in a completely new light. Now the two travelers from different worlds unite as they take on the dark powers that grip both their lives. (Source: VIZ Media, Hulu, edited)

Synopsis 日本語

女子中学生の黄葉菜花は8年前、家族が陥没事故に巻き込まれ「死んだことがある」。偶然にも呼吸停止の状態で発見され難を逃れたが、両親を亡くした。何事も無く過ごしていた菜花だが、ある日、ユーレイが出ると噂の五行町のシャッター街へ同級生と行ったところ、一人妖怪だらけの街に紛れ込んでしまう。襲われる菜花の元に現れたのは摩緒という名の男と、その付き人・乙弥だった。大怪我をした菜花を治療した摩緒は、お前は妖（あやかし）だと指摘する。自分の世界に一人戻った菜花には超人的な力が目覚めていた。再び異世界の門を越えた菜花は、摩緒が陰陽師だと知り、彼と話すうちに幼少期の事故が化け物のせいだと思い出す。そしてこの世界が違う世界ではなく大正12年5月8日ということに気付く。それから、菜花が陥没事故に巻き込まれたその日に起きた、関東大震災が近付いていく。
