One day, high school girl Miko suddenly gains the ability to see spirits. Surrounded by terrifying and grotesque apparitions, Miko chooses the most unexpected survival strategy: pretending she can’t see them. Whether her best friend Hana becomes possessed or her classmate Yuria starts to suspect her secret, Miko sticks to her plan — ignore everything with all her might. But as Hana begins acting more and more strangely… can Miko really survive this ordeal by pretending she doesn’t see a thing!?
