Kage no Kisetsu
In a quiet city in Eastern Hokkaido, a green-eyed girl prepares for her first day at a new school, unaware that the streets she now calls home are watched over by a masked vigilante known only as Kurai.
By day, Kage Tamashi is a quiet student with a troubled past. By night, he dons a blue oni mask to fight the crime that his city has learned to live with. But when Tsubasa—the new girl—witnesses him in action, Kage finds himself grappling with something even more dangerous than the gangs and thugs he hunts: the possibility of being seen, truly seen, by someone else.
A slow-burn blend of action, mystery, and emotional tension, this story explores the space between fear and admiration, secrecy and connection—and the quiet hope that even the most broken people can be understood.
