Wandering in the vastness of space, is the Sky Drifter; an academy reserved for the best students in the known universe. Seven is just such a student. Gifted in strategy and Sphere, he lives happily on-board with his friends Iris and Pi, taking on his rival, visiting planets for exploration and competition. Everything is the way he likes it, until he sees a mysterious girl in a red coat, who will reveal to him a secret that will bring everything he thought he knew crashing down around him.
In a world in which children are exploited, monsters are saviors, and dark magic is constantly at play, a little girl will go to any lengths to be reunited with her lost ones.
After the disappearance of her parents, a heartbroken child is sold to the Doll-Maker who promises to revive them. In return, she is to travel from cemetery to cemetery, unearthing graves and collecting skulls.
While doing so, she must avoid the Violinist and his crows, who are determined to steal the skulls she has painstakingly gathered.
As she travels across the province, with her life in constant peril from vengeful policemen to furious villagers to strange creatures, the little girl must use her wits to succeed in her macabre mission.
Intent on finding his killers, a man with no memory sets off on a strange journey where the dead roam the world of the living. Along his journey he accompanies the Regulars: an unlikely group of restless spirits led by the imperious Louis.
What begins as a quest to uncover a brutal murder soon unfolds into a race against dark forces where nothing is as it seems.
Can the sinister Mr. Cage be stopped?
I guess I was nine or ten when I died. Yeah, so what? It's none of your business. Listen, I'm here to warn you. You have to run, you have to hide. They're coming. Mr. Cage is coming. You don't want to be like me, do you? Though it's probably too late now...
