Synopsis:

The Astronomy Club of Uchihama Academy finds their ordinary lives irrevocably altered by the unexpected return of their deceased friend, Kaori Sasaki. Following her seemingly miraculous reappearance, strange occurrences begin to ripple through the school and town. As the club members navigate a world where the boundaries between reality and something else blur, they encounter unsettling phenomena – from spectral presences to escalating tensions within the student body.

The narrative follows their investigations into these anomalies, spurred by an enigmatic artifact and the arrival of a mysterious new classmate. The series explores themes of loss, memory, and the potential consequences of tampering with the natural order. It presents a subtly unsettling atmosphere, blending slice-of-life elements with increasingly surreal events as the club attempts to understand their evolving reality.
