The date is October 2015, six years after the disaster known as the Shibuya Earthquake. A series of strange incidents are happening in the still-recovering city. Someone is streaming mysterious deaths to a live audience online. Someone dies in the middle of singing in a street performance. A corpse swings from the ceiling of a love hotel. People start to notice.

The day these incidents started was the anniversary of the events that shook Shibuya six years ago. That’s right, it’s the return of a new generation of insanity, they say. However, just one thing is different - a mysterious tag left at the scene of the crime. No one knows just yet that this will become the key to solving the case.

Protagonist Takuru Miyashiro and the other members of the school Newspaper Club follow the bizarre series of murders. Despite the gruesome nature of the events, they have quite the catchy nickname online...
