SHIKIZAKURA

Kakeru, lone survivor of a deadly disaster, visits an exhibit chronicling that terrible day — but what he finds there is more terrifying than anything he could’ve imagined.

Kakeru knows he needs to help that strange girl and her power-suit wearing friends. That’s just what heroes do, right? Now if he could only track them down…

Oni must find vessels in order to manifest in the human world. Kaede has personal experience with this phenomenon — and so does her former rival from her days as a track star.

Kippei knows something is up with Kakeru, and he’s determined to find out what. After all, they’re brothers and heroes in training! Or at least they used to be…

The mysterious Team Black also hunts oni, but their targets are in another, frightening league. Now they need Team White’s help to slay a dangerous Shinja… or so they claim.

To prove he hasn’t been corrupted by Ibara, Kakeru must show his true grit to Issa, a heavy-hitter from Team Black who vowed to wipe all Oni off the face of the earth.

Kakeru and his friends perform a hero stage show for children. Since they’re actual heroes, this should be a piece of cake! Right?

Ryo vowed to hunt down his father’s killer. When Oka becomes a target, Ryo may finally get the chance he’s been waiting for.

Oka is destined to protect the dreams of others, but what about Oka’s dreams? Don’t they matter, too? Kakeru certainly thinks so, and he’ll do his best to make them come true.

A glimpse of the past provides Kakeru with clarity in the present. He knows the reason he stands here today, but does he have the strength to achieve the impossible?

Oka’s determination to perform the ritual is matched only by Kakeru’s determination to protect her — and the determination of a certain oni to destroy them both.

Beneath the blooming shikizakura, the fight against evil comes to a stunning conclusion, but not everyone will make it to the other side of the perilous final battle.
