Synopsis:

The world of *Akanesasu Shoujo* centers on a group of high school students who stumble upon a real-world manifestation of urban legend. Driven by curiosity, the Crystal Radio Research Club initiates a ritual said to transport individuals to alternate dimensions, and unexpectedly succeed. They find themselves in a fractured parallel world populated with unsettling echoes of their own reality.

Here, they encounter a hardened version of their leader, burdened with the knowledge of a growing threat known as the Twilight. This encroaching force erases possibilities across all dimensions, and Seriouska, her parallel-world self, is determined to eliminate its source: the Twilight King. The series follows these young women as they navigate this perilous landscape, confronting not only external dangers but also internal struggles with identity and self-acceptance, ultimately suggesting the key to stopping the Twilight may lie within themselves.
