Kyoto

Until Dusk Protocol

At the heart of a wish lies an attempt at completion, a human desire to become our true and final selves. Wishes are fuelled by regrets and are bound eternally to the past, serving as approximations of what once was. We all experience regret and nostalgia, leading us to make wishes and find despair, but can we become our true selves despite this all? That's where the story of a girl who struggles to control her desires begins... Two souls sharing the same body and memory are living in Kyoto 2031. Tang-Ji Shizukesa, a girl who's grown up in her previous life with a hardcore passion for gaming, is now a bookworm in her new life who has no interest in video games. Along with her, Kazami and Hoyeon, the three childhood friends who separated 7 years ago due to an accident, have now been reunited again in a VRMMORPG game known as Dusk Protocol. The game has a unique combat system known as "Leere," a physical manifestation of an individual soul that can be conjured into deadly weapons. As Tang-Ji navigates this virtual world, she confronts the echoes of her past and the dissonance between her former self and her present identity. How will she cope with the rediscovery of a life she thought she left behind? How will Kazami and Hoyeon react to the new Tang-Ji? In a world where reality is malleable and death is just a click of a button away, the boundaries between past and present blur, forcing everyone to grapple with the truth of who they truly are.

What It Feels Like to Live Like a Civilian in Another World?

One night, in the bustling urban streets of Kyoto, Sato, a weary businessman, trudged along in his usual formal attire. Consumed by a life defined solely by work and sleep, he found himself at a crossroads of despair. Years of relentless dedication to his career had left him without the simple joys of life: the freedom to eat and drink as he pleased, the chance to enjoy his passions, or even the warmth of a family. He realized that in his pursuit of success, he'd forgotten what it meant to truly live. In a desperate attempt to escape his overwhelming thoughts, Sato drowned his sorrows in a nearby bar, drinking away the emptiness that filled him. As the night wore on, he stumbled out into the streets, barely able to keep his balance. But fate had other plans. Drunk and disoriented, Sato was struck by a speeding truck and fell into darkness. When he awoke, he found himself in a vast, empty void—surrounded by nothingness. Before him appeared a radiant figure: a woman dressed in a glowing, ethereal gown. With serene grace, she spoke, revealing that Sato’s life was not yet over. He had been granted an extraordinary second chance—a chance to be reincarnated in another world, where he could finally live the life he'd always dreamed of, free from the confines of his former existence. Reborn as a baby named Souta Laurent, he now finds himself in a new world, far from the world of workaholic ambition. His parents are simple, ordinary citizens, living humbly in this unfamiliar realm. But as Souta grows, a question begins to linger in his mind: What does it truly mean to be a civilian in a world so different from the one he once knew?

Wandering Knight Too Angry to Die

In the shadowy depths of an ancient forest in Heian Japan, a nameless European knight finds himself inexplicably transported from his homeland to a realm unknown, hundreds of kilometers away from the familiar landscapes of Europe. Lost and bewildered, he stands amidst the towering trees of a foreign land, his armor gleaming like a beacon in this distant time period. As the knight grapples with the enigma of his sudden displacement, he soon discovers that this world is teeming with malevolent forces, demons, and spirits drawn from the rich tapestry of Japanese folklore. They torment him, as if toying with the interloper who has unwittingly stumbled into their domain. Each encounter with these supernatural entities becomes a harrowing battle, his sword clashing against the eerie, otherworldly forms that emerge from the shadows. Yet amidst the chaos and danger, a ray of hope emerges in the form of a mysterious shrine maiden. She becomes his guide in this realm, her gentle presence a lifeline in a sea of unfamiliar customs and an impenetrable language barrier. Together, they embark on a quest, not only to confront the demons that have ensnared him but also to decipher the ancient mysteries of Heian Japan. Their journey takes them through a world of vividly painted landscapes, from the bustling streets of Heian-era Kyoto to the serene tranquility of remote mountain shrines. Along the way, the knight gains a deep appreciation for the life of the common folk in this ancient East Asian society, as he witnesses the delicate interplay between Shinto and Buddhist practices and becomes entwined in the cultural tapestry of the time. As the battles against the malevolent spirits intensify, the knight's quest for a way back to his European homeland becomes deeply personal. The demons have not only transported him across time and space but have also tampered with his very existence. Determined to reclaim his lost identity and return home, he must muster every ounce of courage and determination, forging an unbreakable bond with the shrine maiden.
