Synopsis
High schooler Yuji Sakai enters supernatural conflict with warrior Shana as global Flame Hazes prepare for world-changing battle.
In a world where invisible forces wage secret battles, Yuji Sakai finds himself caught between two realities - the ordinary life of a high school student and the hidden realm of supernatural conflict. When mysterious circumstances pull him away from everything familiar, he becomes entangled with Shana, a fierce warrior who exists to maintain the balance between worlds. As tensions rise between powerful factions and ancient powers stir, their paths converge once more in a confrontation that will test the boundaries of loyalty, identity, and the price of peace. Flame Hazes from across the globe begin to mobilize, setting the stage for an unprecedented conflict that will reshape the supernatural world forever. (Source: FUNimation)
