Kasai has done everything he can to support his sister, Ayumi. After witnessing both of his parent's death, he has pushed aside the trauma from those experiences to push him and his sister forward. In his small notebook, he keeps and writes poems from experiences and feelings he can't express. As his girlfriend, Vanessa comes, those poems get lengthy, but everyone has a weak spot. When it's found, broken even, those stanzas, those lines, become shorter until there is none left. One poem turns into one stanza, one stanza becomes one line until it's gone. How much pain can one go through before the ink turns into blood?

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
