The Story Behind Shiranui
Set in the summer of 1996, Shiranui follows Minato, a solitary 10-year-old boy struggling under the weight of his father's alcoholism in a quiet seaside town. His only comfort comes from Ben-chan, a mysterious girl goddess dwelling on Benten Island—his escape from a bleak home life. When circumstances force Minato into an orphanage and tear him away from his divine companion, he makes a fateful wish to Shiranui. But as his sorrow morphs into bitter resentment toward his negligent father, that innocent wish transforms into something far more sinister: a malicious curse that will alter everything.
