Synopsis:

Hinamizawa appears idyllic – a close-knit community bathed in the warmth of a perpetual summer. But this tranquility is fragile, concealing a recurring cycle of violence and loss. Rika Furude, burdened by a grim awareness of the village’s shadowed history, finds herself repeatedly reliving the same days, compelled to prevent horrific events. Each reset offers a chance to unravel the mystery behind these tragedies, yet the incomplete nature of her knowledge consistently hinders her efforts. As the annual festival draws near, Rika confronts the crushing weight of inevitability, grappling with the futility of trying to alter a predetermined course. The series explores themes of memory, trauma, and the struggle against inescapable destiny within a hauntingly beautiful setting.
