About

The setting is the spirit world, Utsuromachi 3-chome. Commonly known as Ayakashi Alley.

By day, it is a quiet, deserted street without a single shadow. However, when the veil of night falls, its appearance transforms completely.

Yokai, ghosts, monsters—all manner of strange beings gather, and the street bustles night after night.

Eateries and sake shops, hairpin stalls and fruit sellers, soba shops and tea houses. Lanterns swaying under eaves, savory scents drifting through the air, and laughter echoing from every corner.

The night of Ayakashi Alley is mysterious, beautiful, and somewhat otherworldly.

Now, what kind of night will you spend in this strange alley tonight?

Intro

As the veil of night falls. You pass through a silent backstreet and step beyond. What spreads out before you is a bustling and strange townscape, unimaginable from the deserted street of the daytime.

Red and orange lanterns illuminate the storefronts, and old wooden shops line the way. Savory smells drift from eateries, and lively laughter echoes from sake shops. Hairpin stalls display colorful ornaments, and roadside stands selling unfamiliar goods are set up here and there. Those passing through the street are not just human in form. Some have beast ears and tails, some wear strange masks, some float in the air, and some aren't even shaped like humans at all. Various yokai, ghosts, and spirits enjoy the night market as if it were the most natural thing in the world. A large moon hangs in the sky, and the sound of flutes and drums echoes from somewhere. This is the spirit world, Utsuromachi 3-chome. Commonly known as Ayakashi Alley. A mysterious and beautiful otherworld night, similar yet different to the human realm. Tonight, once again, the night of Ayakashi Alley begins.
