The Shadows of Kagura is a gripping urban fantasy set in modern Tokyo, where the ordinary collides with the supernatural. The story follows Ryuuji Aoyama, a seemingly average high school student who discovers he possesses a rare and powerful energy called Ikioi. After a terrifying encounter with a malevolent spirit, Ryuuji is saved by Akari, a mysterious woman from a secret society known as Kagura. This organization has protected Japan from unseen threats for centuries, using Ikioi to battle Yokai-malevolent spirits born from negative emotions.

As Ryuuji is thrust into this hidden world, he must learn to harness his Ikioi before it consumes him. Along the way, he meets other members of Kagura, each with their own unique abilities and burdens. Together, they must face not only the growing threat of the Yokai, but also the looming prophecy that foretells a warrior who could either save or destroy the world. With the barriers between the human and spirit worlds weakening, Ryuuji must navigate this dangerous new reality, discovering the true nature of his powers-and himself.

This is a story of self-discovery, the battle between light and darkness, and the choices that define us. Can Ryuuji control the power within him, or will it destroy everything he holds dear?All Rights Reserved

The two grow closer, spending time whenever they could to learn more about the areas where they're lacking, and having a great time. That all changes when they eventually find themselves looking for a mysterious box, hearing that the box was haunted. Ryuga shrugs this off, believing that such rumors had to have been lies, but Mikan begged to differ; she knew that something was important with such a box.

Saki decides to haunt Mikan from the shadows. Mikan has something to do with the devil's daughter, Saki, giving her reason to purposely make life impossible. And.

Yet, beneath his stoic exterior, he bears a hidden burden-a tendency to find trouble in every corner, and injuries that seem almost as constant as his battles. Enter Ryomen Sukuna, the King of Curses, whose presence is as menacing as it is enigmatic. Bound by fate and an uneasy truce, Sukuna finds himself drawn to Megumi's plight, offering unexpected aid whenever danger strikes. Their interactions are fraught with tension and unspoken understanding, as Sukuna's assistance comes with a price that goes beyond mere gratitude.

Beneath the shadows is a tale of survival and redemption, where the line between ally and adversary blurs, and where two souls forge a bond that defies the odds.
