Synopsis:

In the urban landscape of Misaki City, a mysterious threat emerges from the Crimson Realm – beings that siphon life force from humans. The Flame Hazes, tasked with safeguarding humanity, find themselves in a precarious situation as Shana, a Hunter marked by flame and intensity, develops an unusual focus on Yuuji Sakai, a high school student drawn into this conflict. Their connection deepens amidst escalating danger, complicated by Shana's enigmatic nature.

As the Bal Masqué organization plots further attacks, Yuuji and Shana must confront not only external enemies but also the origins of a powerful artifact residing within Yuuji: the "Midnight Lost Child." The narrative explores themes of duty, connection, and the blurred lines between protector and protected, set against a backdrop of supernatural battles and personal revelation. The series balances action with character-driven moments, examining how individuals navigate extraordinary circumstances and evolving relationships.
