Synopsis:

Quon Kisaragi's perception of reality fractures when she encounters a seemingly independent manifestation of herself. This spectral counterpart initiates a profound exploration of identity and selfhood, prompting Quon to confront fundamental questions about her existence. The narrative unfolds as an introspective journey, largely centered on the evolving dialogue between these two distinct selves. Set within a subtly unsettling environment, the anime delves into themes of fragmentation, memory, and the subjective nature of reality. Rather than action-driven plot, the series emphasizes character interaction and psychological exploration, offering a contemplative experience that invites viewers to consider the complexities inherent in self-awareness. The story is less about external conflict and more about navigating internal landscapes.
