The Lost Village

A group of young men and women are headed to Nanaki Village for a fresh start in life. There, it's rumored that people declared missing are in fact leading a utopian existence.

The group forms a search party to find the missing members - Yottsun and Masaki - but find what seems to be a large bear.

Their escape plans thwarted, Mikage's group returns to the village to report their findings, only to find that Jack has broken free. As accusations fly, their unease only grows.

While the two groups reunite in the village, the mounting suspicion of each other strains the group dynamic. As the group struggles to find some semblance of cohesion, more members begin seeing apparitions.

Mitsumune and Masaki have a heart-to-heart where Mitsumune reveals his past and what led him to Nanaki Village. Masaki tells him he can leave the village if he can confront his past.

Captured by the group, Masaki reluctantly begins telling her story and what her connection is to the Village. But not everyone trusts her words.
