A live-action film, a real escape game, and a video game have also been announced.

Synopsis

Following the death of his parents, Shinpei Ajiro grew up with the Kofune sisters Ushio and Mio before heading to Tokyo to live alone. Two years later, he returns to his hometown of Hitogashima Island, Wakayama Prefecture to attend Ushio's funeral following news of her drowning. However, Shinpei becomes suspicious when he receives news of strangle marks around Ushio's neck, implying that she was murdered intentionally. Now haunted by her "ghost" and assisted by Mio, Shinpei tries to find the answers to what really happened to Ushio and possibly save the residents from a strange dark enigma.

Characters

Shinpei Ajiro (網代 慎平, Ajiro Shinpei)
Voiced by: Natsuki Hanae[4] (Japanese); Stephen Fu (English)
Shinpei is a kind-hearted teenager who used to live on Hitogashima with the Kofune family after his parents' death, but moved away to Tokyo to become independent soon after. Returning to attend Ushio's funeral leads him down a path of dark secrets on the island. He discovers his ability to loop by dying.
Ushio Kofune (小舟 潮, Kofune Ushio)
Voiced by: Anna Nagase[4] (Japanese); Emi Lo[5] (English)
Mio's older sister and Shinpei's adoptive sister. Unlike Mio, Ushio is bold, brazen and hot-tempered, though this makes her capable of acting quickly and responding to sudden situations. She is often seen wearing a school swimsuit.
Mio Kofune (小舟 澪, Kofune Mio)
Voiced by: Saho Shirasu[4] (Japanese); Merk Nguyen (English)
Ushio's little sister who has a crush on Shinpei. Unlike Ushio, Mio is shy and meek, and it is these personality and physical differences that have led Mio to harbour much self-hatred. She has a Shadow version; whereas the Shadow version wears white panties, Mio wears striped panties.

Voiced by: Yōko Hikasa[6] (Japanese); Jenn Wong[7] (English)
A horror-mystery writer, Hizuru is intelligent and level-headed, capable of making accurate deductions and detailed planning. She is also a trained combatwoman and this skill is compounded by how the data of her younger twin brother, Ryūnosuke's, Shadow exists in her, allowing her to detect Shadows and move at their speed albeit with much strain on her body.

Voiced by: Kensho Ono[6] (Japanese); Jason Jin (English)
Shinpei's best friend on the island who is in love with Mio. He is the oldest child of the Hishigata family, who runs the Hishigata Clinic on the island.

Voiced by: Katsuyuki Konishi[8] (Japanese); Kaiji Tang[9] (English)

Voiced by: Rie Kugimiya[10] (Japanese); Giselle Fernandez[11] (English)
