第1話 Optical Illusion（めのさっかく）

Kimi Shirokado is an eccentric girl whose complaint about the heatwave leads to her and the senior residents of Housing Complex C to find strange things while getting an ice machine in a secret storage cellar. Over the course of the next few days, Kimi befriends a girl named Yuri Koshide whose family moved into the housing complex along with mid-eastern interns. Later, Kimi brings Yuri to the storage cellar where they find disturbing drawings belonging to a Hikikomori named Hideo. They return Hideo’s pen to him and he draws a cute picture of the two. Kimi comes to invite Hideo the next day for shaved ice and accidentally steps on his anime figurine upon noticing his bedroom door open, finding a large pile of moss inside.

第2話 Mismatched Buttons（ボタンのかけちがえ）

As Hideo’s disappearance is unofficially shrugged off by the police, Kimi tries to ease tensions between the tenants and Mr. Koshide‘s interns with a shaved ice party. But as preparations are made, the senior tenants decide to investigate the strange piles of dead fish on the property and assume one of the interns is responsible, only for the mystery to deepen as one of them decides to stand guard. The party commences with Kentaro Yoshii realizing something is wrong when the shaved ice syrup tastes strange, finding his follow tenant’s apartment growing moss while the syrup is revealed to contaminated with a dog’s severed head.

第3話 The Wheel Comes Full Circle（もとのもくあみ）

Takashi helps briefly defuse the housing residents and the interns, lamenting that the wheel came full circle and that watch groups would incite further mistrust, as even Kanchan is sold out by his fellow interns to Rubel's disgust. Takashi realizes the strange events are tied to the lyrics of an ancient song, but reaches a dead end until seeing Rubel off, discovering the actual Kurodo Shrine is located behind Housing Complex C and makes a horrific discovery. As the day passes on, Kimi, Yuri, and Kanchan realize Takashi is missing and try to look for him. Their search takes them to the storage cellar, where they find Hideo's drawings ripped to pieces and a back chamber, which Kimi enters, finding a pile of moss and a mural of the fish people praying to the mountain god as Yuri attempts to decipher it before Kimi pleas for her not to. The two take their leave, Kimi revealing the moss to be what remains of Takashi. Later returning to her apartment, Kimi questions the growing embryo that she calls her mother if everything will go full circle.

第4話 The End of the Line（いっかんの終わり）

After Kimi gives Kobayashi the journal of Takashi, he learns that his friend had discovered the fish people are worshipers of a fallen god that commit human sacrifices to earn favor of a reality-manipulating god. That deity is revealed to have assumed the identity of Kimi, who kept the complex stuck in a year-long time loop of 2000. However, her task is made difficult by the Koshide family who are descendants of the fish people. Kobayashi tries to reach Kimi only to be killed by Mr. Koshide, as he and Mrs. Koshide have slaughtered almost all the residents. Once Kimi and Yuri retreat into the cellar, Yuri tries to kill Kimi. Having dropped her act, Kimi reveals her true nature as a supreme being as she summons the mutilated parts of Yuri's parents. Yuri immediately attempts to earn Kimi's trust only to be killed by a disillusioned Kimi, who has grown tired of her time amongst humans and proceeds to undo the loop. Having received the stone from Kimi earlier with instructions, Kanchan is forced to go against his faith and recites a protection spell so that he doesn't die. Kanchan awakens in a renamed town of Shirosaki as it should be in the present year as a white-haired Kimi watches him leave the ruins of Housing Complex C while blowing bubbles on the rooftop.
