「厄災の日 -What really happened?-」 (Yakusai no Hi: What Really Happened?) "The Day of the Disaster -What really happened?-" Take a picture, it’ll last longer.
Overtake! – 09
As this episode wound down I kept thinking of Gegege no Kitarou 2018's Episode 20, "Memories of the Y?ka" (the war one).
Overtake! – 06
