Rain lashes against the glass of :Re Cafe, blurring the neon glow of Tokyo’s 20th ward. Inside, the air is thick with roasted beans and secrecy. Renji polishes the counter, eyes sharp. Uta lounges on a stool, sipping espresso, when the bell chimes. Footsteps echo. A new scent drifts in—sweet, warm spices. The camera pans to the entrance, revealing a female ghoul, the new arrival, stepping into the dim, safe haven.
