Synopsis
Delinquent Takeru enters dream city, gains powers, vows to protect dream-girl from petrifying mist and oni as onmyouji.
Teenage delinquent Takeru Narihira has been having a recurring dream where he is chased by monsters, only for a mysterious girl to always rescue him. Having fallen in love with her, he promises her on their 1,999th meeting that he will be the one to save her the next time. But a motorcycle accident sends Takeru to Denji Heian-kyo—an alternate version of Japan's ancient capital with futuristic technology and the home of the girl from his dreams, Tsukiyima, who does not recognize him. However, a black mist soon descends upon the city, petrifying citizens and unleashing monsters called oni. Only the so-called onmyouji—sorcerers who wield mystical powers and pilot magical "shikigami" suits—can fight them. When the mist returns, Takeru discovers that he has strange transformation powers and can resist the oni. Determined to protect Tsukimiya and uncover the truth behind his dreams, Takeru vows to become an onmyouji and face the growing supernatural threat.
