Beneath the Shadow

Beneath the Shadow
In an alternate Tokyo, the sky has gone dark and never lifts. For Kazusa, an 18-year-old on the edge of graduating high school, it starts as just another day to get through. But the longer the darkness lingers, the more the world around her begins to slip — and what felt ordinary quietly turns to madness.
Adapted from the creator's original novel, Beneath the Shadow brings the written story to life with illustration and an original score, built to pull you deeper into its world. This is a fixed, linear narrative — there are no branching paths and no choices to make. Your role is to move the story forward and witness Kazusa's descent exactly as it was written to unfold.
