Story Notes

Bittersweet.Melancholic.A love story for adults—ending, somehow, in happiness.

This is also a struggle between two competing visions of history — Japan’s Imperial-State (Kōkoku) historiography, which still permeates the core of political power, and the Allied Powers’ victor-centered narrative of history.

Summary

“An unfillable, eternal loneliness…I am a lonely orphan of heart......” She said.Deployed to occupied Japan as a member of the Allied forces, I encounter two women. One lives in a virtual world — a woman who does not seek love. The other belongs to the real world — a woman who longs to love and be loved. I find myself drawn to a hollow illusion devoid of reality, even as I search for something true. Two loves running in parallel, never to intersect, pull me in opposite directions and lead me toward both ruin and rebirth. In the midst of all this, I become entangled in a series of bizarre murders, and find myself torn between friendship and justice.
