    Synopsis:

    Yomiyama North Junior High's Class 3-3 harbors a deeply unsettling secret. Upon his return after a month-long absence, transfer student Kouichi Sakakibara finds himself isolated from his peers, who seem to collectively ignore Mei Misaki, a classmate marked by an eyepatch. Their warnings against engaging with the unseen pique Kouichi's curiosity, leading him to forge a connection with Mei and uncover a disturbing truth surrounding a past student’s tragic fate.

    The narrative unfolds as a slow-burn mystery, exploring themes of collective denial and the consequences of confronting suppressed history. As strange occurrences escalate, Kouichi becomes determined to unravel the class’s ominous curse, a pursuit that forces him to question reality itself and confront a chilling price for seeking answers. The series emphasizes atmosphere and psychological tension over action, presenting a quietly unsettling exploration of loss and the boundaries of perception.
