However, an argument ensues between them—Momo believes in ghosts but denies aliens, and Okarun believes in aliens but denies ghosts. In order to make the people who reject each other trust each other, Momo visits an abandoned hospital known for UFO sightings, and Okarun goes to a tunnel that is said to be haunted. At each place, they encounter paranormal activity that is overwhelming beyond their understanding. Amidst these difficult situations, Momo awakens her latent powers and Okarun gains the power of the curse to challenge the paranormal forces! Their fateful love also begins!?
The story of mystical battle and adolescence begins!
