PLOT
It is January 29, 2030, in Tokyo. Near Tokyo, high-frequency resonance is seen, and the city is enveloped in red fog. Both humans and animals who hear the sound faint out and lose consciousness. Tokyo shuts down in response to the widespread belief that an undiscovered sickness is being carried by the fog. But six days after the catastrophe, folks awaken pretending that nothing ever happened. After that, the areas of Tokyo's walled-off city gradually return to normal. Although some "bizarre incidents" start to occur as a result of the high-frequency resonance, people find themselves drawn further into further mysteries. Young people, who are discovering themselves as "vessels of wisdom blood," begin to become conscious of themselves and release the power that is concealed in their blood. They get together, communicate, and, under the guidance of an enigmatic force, confront the inevitable circle of fate while laying down their own lives.
