Synopsis – Onmyo Kaiten Re:Birth Verse

In an alternative Japan where the Heian era has taken a mystical turn, the capital Kyoto is no longer the same. Renamed Denji Heian-kyo, it has become a place where divine lightning and occult forces dictate the laws of the world. It is in this universe that Takeru Narehira, a delinquent high school student propelled into the past after an accident, finds himself.

As soon as he arrives, he meets Tsukimiya, a mysterious young woman whom he has seen several times in his dreams... But their meeting quickly turns into a nightmare. An oni appears, attacking them mercilessly, and in an instant, they lose their lives. However, Takeru wakes up again in Denji Heian-kyo, unharmed. He then understands that he has a unique gift: that of going back in time.

Determined to unravel the secrets of this mystical city and save Tsukimiya from its fate, Takeru decides to study the occult arts of onmyojutsu to become a true onmyoji, a master exorcist. But as he embarks on this quest, he discovers that Denji Heian-kyo is far more dangerous than he imagined, populated by supernatural creatures and enemies lurking in the shadows...
