The camera pans over a bustling city street, focusing on the solitary figure of Osamu Dazai. He walks with headphones on, detached from the world, his gaze distant. Suddenly, a stranger collides with him in a rush. Dazai doesn’t flinch, until a faint, glowing red thread materializes from his pinky, stretching toward the fleeing man.

The atmosphere shifts from lonely gray to a sudden, vibrant possibility.
