The story follows Kakujou Youkuo his fifteenth birthday in a seemingly normal world where medical technology has sky rocketed and is now able to translate any human organ. Those behind this are called the Ame No Tori (Rain of Birds). But it all turns out to be a plot against humanity where the new tech can take over its host and thus making them into a killing machine. A task force called the Jackalope are set on annihilating them before they raise more havoc and so Youkuo's new life begins.

The year is 2014, a new substance, SDE01, commonly referred to as "Mana" is discovered by a group of Russian scientists. The world plunges into a development race to find uses of this new seemingly unlimited source of energy that cannot be seen or felt.

16 years after the discovery, it's now the self-proclaimed Age of Magic, where you can download an App to your very phone and cast magic. However, heavy restrictions have been imposed over the available spells, and the required paperwork to even use a high level spell are astronomic.

Among the citizens of this new world, a red robed mysterious man seems capable of wielding extremely powerful magic in a way that should not be possible. It's unknown what his aim is or what he wants to accomplish. All that's known about this mysterious person is that he has been using forbidden level spells to kill evil-doers throughout the city.

But detective Kim is in charge of catching this murderer/hero. And he doesn't plan on giving up.

Detective Mamoru Akasaka is used to catching criminals and solving fast-paced cases in Tokyo, but he has never imagined that his job would send him to the quiet village of Hinamizawa. Disguised as a tourist, Akasaka decides to take in the sights, all while gathering information for his true mission: to find a kidnapped child.

The dam construction project in Hinamizawa threatens to decimate the village, and a group of villagers has kidnapped the grandson of the Minister of Construction, holding him ransom in exchange for the project's cancellation. Akasaka must find the boy before things get too out of hand, all while trying to keep his cover. Taking place a few years before the main storyline of Higurashi, Himatsubushi-hen follows Akasaka as he navigates a village where enemies abound. However, he finds a friend in a young girl named Rika Furude, who knows far more than she should about their present situation, and about what might happen next…

The twist? The day after, his prophecies have been completed on the front of the TV news. Who is he?

Midnight. Awoken by the echoing sound in my room, I was met with a frightening pair of “legs.” Since then, as if wishing to merely make its presence known, it remained in my room without letting itself be seen. In the same way it was spreading its encircling net, little by little it encroached on my life until at last it appeared before me. Its true form was that of an exceedingly beautiful “nameless monster.” Desperate resistance was futile as the monster dropped its hand towards me. I could not escape or resist. Hiding it from my skeptical lover and friends, thus opened the curtain to our strange life together. Quietly, the senses I had as a human were dying as my normal life continued to collapse. The moment I knew what was awaiting before me, I was approached with a large decision.

The same time the monster first appeared before me, the public was disturbed by a string of bizarre murders. It was then that I began to wonder whether they and my beautiful yet eerie roommate were connected.
