Synopsis:

In a quiet urban setting, the mundane unravels when a keen observer, Kumiko Ijima, recognizes a wanted criminal in her local park. Her artistic memory, triggered by police sketches, places him as a suspect in a murder case. This recognition inadvertently draws unwanted attention, as the criminal discovers evidence linking him to Kumiko. A catastrophic event involving a seal and a demonic entity transforms the criminal into a relentless pursuer, driven to eliminate any woman bearing the initials "K.I." and identified by a distinctive red ribbon. The narrative explores themes of unintended consequences, the power of observation, and the blurring lines between the ordinary and the extraordinary as Kumiko becomes entangled in a dangerous and increasingly surreal chase. The story unfolds with a growing sense of dread and suspense, highlighting the vulnerability of innocence when confronted with supernatural forces.
