Miyamoto Kano

Akihiko, searching for answers about the early-death curse that afflicted his father, returns to the rural family seat, but when he arrives, he is faced with only more questions. What is the nature of his family's curse, and why does it strike down only male descendants? Who was the Meiji-era ghost that appears in Akihiko's visions? Above all, does his mysterious cousin Ren have the answers that he seeks?

Misono Kazuki is a college student pursuing a dream of becoming a famous novelist but unfortunately, for someone trying to pen a supernatural YA novel, he's got next to no experience with close encounters of the spiritual kind. To remedy this, at the suggestion of a friend, he heads to a supposedly haunted shrine late one moonlit evening, and while he doesn't find any ghosts, he does find something much more interesting.

Four stories about the last hours of 4 different men and their shinagamis. The first two are quite sad.
