Shokusai no Miyako

One hot and humid day. In Hachio, a large city located west of the capital, citizens were living peaceful lives as usual. However, an earthquake suddenly struck this peaceful city. And Hachio was transformed into hell. The protagonist, Yuuya Takizawa, who lives in Hachio, miraculously survived by accidentally finding himself in a gap between collapsed buildings. However, the familiar scenery had changed so dramatically that he was at a loss and unable to comprehend the situation. He began to search for his family, but their home had already been reduced to rubble, and no matter how hard he searched, he could not find them... Then, following a faint sound, he discovered his sister Rika buried in the rubble. Yuuya and Rika were happy to see each other safe. The two spotted a helicopter flying overhead and began walking toward the station, seeking help. As they made their way through the piles of rubble, strangely enough, they saw no people, not even bodies, despite traces of blood. When they arrived in front of the station, for some reason, the helicopter was on fire. As Yuuya held the anxiously trembling Rika close and wondered what to do, a figure appeared in front of him from the darkness. It was a man who appeared to be a helicopter crew member, approaching with vacant eyes and not responding to their calls. Terrified by the strange sight, the two stepped back, and suddenly, something long and terrifying like a snake leaped out of the helicopter crew member's mouth and body! They attacked the two at once, but at that moment, another man attacked the helicopter crew member, who was hit in the head and collapsed. The man rushed with the distraught two into the shopping mall in front of the station. In a space separated by thick fire doors, they found survivors who were caught up in the disaster. There, the two learned about the events that occurred in front of the station and the mysterious deaths... and the few people they met. And so begins a life-or-death tragedy for those whose right to live for tomorrow has been taken away.
