Synopsis
Saki searches vanished Akira in NYC, uncovering conspiracies and new players in their intertwined fate.
After making a mysterious decision that would change his life forever, Akira Takizawa vanished without a trace, leaving behind only his cellphone and a cryptic message for Saki Morimi. Now carrying the weight of unanswered questions, Saki holds onto the hope of finding him again. Half a year has passed since their fateful encounter, and whispers of Akira's existence have begun to surface. Drawn by these rumors and the promise of reuniting with the enigmatic young man who changed her life, Saki's journey takes her across the ocean to New York City. But she's not alone in her search—others with their own agendas and connections to Akira's past are converging on the same destination. As new players enter the scene and hidden motivations come to light, what began as a simple search evolves into something far more complex. In a world where trust is a luxury and every interaction could be part of a larger game, Saki must navigate dangerous waters while holding onto the hope of finding Akira—and understanding the true nature of the forces that brought them together.

After preventing Japan's destruction, Akira Takizawa made one final request to become the "King of Japan," before he erased his memories once again and disappeared. Leaving Saki Morimi with his cellphone, the only clue she has in regards to Akira's whereabouts is the message, "I'll be waiting where our journey started." Six months later, rumors have spread about Akira, and Saki's search leads her to New York City. However, Saki is not the only person who goes to investigate—with several billion yen burning a hole in their pockets and a challenge to "save Japan," the remaining Seleção are not far behind. Some are willing to help Akira achieve his goals, but a few are making dangerous moves in order to eliminate him and achieve their own picture of a better Japan. With rising stakes and new revelations, the game is still on.
