ダンダダン
Momo Ayase is a high school girl who believes in ghosts but thinks aliens are nonsense. By chance, she befriends a boy at school who is obsessed with the occult and UFOs, but rejects the existence of spirits. She nicknames him "Okarun."
To settle their argument, they make a bet: Momo visits a spot known for UFO sightings while Okarun heads to a haunted tunnel. Their separate excursions prove both of them wrong, as they discover that aliens and ghosts are very real.
The encounter leaves them marked by bizarre powers and throws them into a chaotic world of yokairaqs and extraterrestrial threats. Together, they must deal with the surreal dangers now disrupting their everyday lives while navigating their growing feelings for each other.
