About This Game

The other half of your soul — never let go.

**A story that begins anew in the Afterworld.**

Guided by a singing voice, you rise from the depths of dark waters and awaken in an unknown forest. There you meet someone who seems to know you — a girl or a boy, depending on the protagonist you choose. Given a name, the two of you begin a life together. But when you learn that the Mirror of Samsara — which governs rebirth in this world — has been shattered by an unknown hand, and the cycle of rebirth has ground to a halt, you set out on a journey to restore it.

**Forge bonds with your companions, and face the truth.**

Pechi, a black cat who was once deeply loved. Kaguya, a flame demon driven to despair by human selfishness. Hayate, a wind spirit forced into a senseless death. One by one, they join your journey.

As time passes, your bond with your partner begins to waver. Feelings drift apart. And the reason you came to this world — that answer is yours to find, and yours to face.

Key Features

**💞 A Story for Two — With Your Same-Sex Partner**

Choose your protagonist: Mizuki, a bright and sensitive girl, or Nagi, a sharp-minded boy with a strong sense of justice. Depending on your choice, your same-sex partner will be Rui, a bold and confident girl, or Kairi, a sensitive boy with quiet inner strength. Their bond shifts between lighthearted moments fitting their age and doubts that shake its very foundation — and your choices will lead to one of four different endings.

**❤️ The Emotion System — Where Heart Meets Numbers**

Emotions that shift during the story carry directly into battle as stats. Joy boosts all stats. Anger raises attack power. Sadness increases magic power. Fear lowers both attack and magic — a troublesome emotion, but for beast companions and beast-type enemies, it holds a certain advantage that humans don't share. You can also use items to deliberately shift a character's emotional state.

**🌑 The Hidden Parameter "Empathy" and Four Endings**

What do you say to someone who's hurting? Or do you simply hold their hand in silence? Your words and actions toward your partner are quietly recorded as the hidden parameter Empathy, ultimately determining which ending you reach. Clues hidden throughout the story may also open the path to certain endings.

**📜 *Records* — Fragments That Don't Agree**

Tucked away in the corners of dungeons lie fragments of records that drifted from the world of the living. A witch. A soldier. A cat. Piece together *Records* written from multiple perspectives, and assemble the truth for yourself.

**⚔️ Strategic Combat, Limitless Builds**

Four-member party, turn-based battles. Exploit elemental affinities — fire, water, light, dark, and more — alongside racial advantages, and use the Sharp Eye skill to reveal enemy weaknesses. Every character can equip any weapon and armor. Daggers that bypass evasion, greatswords that stagger foes — combine 8 weapon categories with skills to craft a build that's yours alone, in combat with real bite.

**🔰 Support for Story-Focused Players**

In addition to **Normal Mode**, which offers the intended combat difficulty, **Story Mode** is available for those who want to focus on the narrative.

In both modes, even if your party is wiped out by a powerful boss, you can **instantly retry from the start of the battle**.
