Synopsis
The story is set in a psychiatric hospital. Hidemaru Kajiki (Shofukutei Tsurube) was sentenced to death for killing his mother and his wife, yet survived his execution by a miracle. Chu (Go Ayano) was once an ordinary office worker, but his worsening auditory hallucinations made him a target of discrimination; he lost his job and his life fell apart. Yuki (Nana Komatsu), a high school girl, refused to go to school and shut herself away in her room, until her parents, at the end of their patience, sent her to the hospital. All kinds of patients live here, each with a tragic past, and they have formed a special bond that is closer than family. A murder, however, breaks this hard-won balance.
