Synopsis:

Nekota Kaoru lives a seemingly ordinary life in a quiet Tokyo suburb, anticipating the typical joys of middle school. Beneath this facade, however, lies a hidden reality. From childhood, Nekota has possessed the unusual ability to perceive Imadoki youkai – entities woven into the fabric of modern society. This secret has shaped her perspective, forcing her to navigate a world unseen by others. The series explores Nekota's internal struggle to reconcile her ordinary aspirations with this extraordinary perception. It delves into themes of isolation, self-acceptance, and the quiet wonders that can be found in the overlooked corners of everyday life, presenting a contemplative narrative centered around a girl grappling with a unique and isolating gift.
