Den-noh Coil
What if you could view a hidden world... that no one else could see?
A cerebral, visually inventive sci-fi mystery about children investigating the hidden dangers of augmented reality, blending wonder with creeping dread and philosophical questions about the nature of reality.
In 2026, eleven years after the introduction of internet-connected augmented reality eyeglasses and visors, Yūko Okonogi moves with her family to the city of Daikoku, the technological center of the emerging half-virtual world. Yūko joins her grandmother's "investigation agency" made up of children equipped with virtual tools and metatags. As their research turns up mounting evidence of children who have been whisked away to the mysterious "other side" of reality, they find themselves entangled in a conspiracy to cover up the dangerous true nature and history of the new technology.
