After Momo intervenes to rescue Okarun from bullies, they begin a lively exchange but quickly clash over their differing beliefs: Momo’s conviction in ghosts and denial of extraterrestrial existence, contrasted by Okarun’s belief in aliens and dismissal of ghosts.
Determined to prove their beliefs to each other, Momo ventures into a UFO-reported abandoned hospital, while Okarun braves a haunted tunnel. What ensues are mind-bending supernatural encounters that neither were prepared for. Through these trials, Momo unveils hidden powers, and Okarun unlocks the might of a curse. Their tales of adolescence and occult battles weave together to create a captivating and unique narrative.
