Synopsis:
Shinta Mizumura's quiet existence at a Tokyo missionary school is disrupted by the arrival of Lilith, a captivating student with a mysterious past. This encounter unravels long-held secrets about Shinta’s identity – he is heir to a lineage dedicated to protecting humanity from supernatural threats. The narrative unfolds within a subtly unsettling atmosphere, blending everyday school life with glimpses into a hidden world of ancient beings and perilous battles.
The series explores themes of destiny versus choice as Shinta grapples with his inherited responsibility and the implications of a world far stranger than he ever imagined. Relationships are central to the story, particularly the developing connection between Shinta and Lilith, who herself carries a burden tied to her heritage. Expect a slow-burn narrative that prioritizes character development and atmosphere over constant action, inviting viewers to contemplate the weight of legacy and the nature of good and evil.
