Synopsis:

The series unfolds within a subtly unsettling townscape, where pastoral beauty exists alongside an uncanny presence. A young girl navigates this environment accompanied by creatures born from her own internal world. The narrative distinguishes itself through its visual representation of the protagonist’s inner life; her daydreams and emotional states manifest as the very monsters that surround her.

The animation style emphasizes delicate linework and soft color palettes, contributing to an atmosphere of quiet introspection. A lively soundtrack contrasts with the often melancholic visuals, creating a distinctive tone. The work offers a thoughtful exploration of childhood perception, blurring the lines between reality and imagination while maintaining a gentle, observational approach to its subject matter.
