    Synopsis:

    Set against the backdrop of 12th century Japan, this anime explores themes of destiny, loyalty, and the burden of foresight. The story centers on a young woman named Biwa, who possesses the unsettling ability to glimpse possible futures – a gift that has branded her with tragedy. After her father’s death as a consequence of perceived disrespect towards the powerful Taira clan, she encounters Taira no Shigemori, a high-ranking member grappling with his own visions of impending conflict.

    Shigemori, able to perceive the spirits of the departed, takes Biwa under his protection, drawn to her plight and sensing a pivotal role she must play in the unfolding political landscape. As tensions escalate between the Taira clan and their rivals, Biwa’s reluctant prophecies become a source of both hope and apprehension for Shigemori, forcing them to navigate a path where the future is never certain and personal desires clash with historical inevitability. The narrative unfolds with a quiet intensity, examining the complexities of power and the individual's agency within a rapidly changing world.
