Story

Glass blower, Tasuku, has never been in love… until he encounters Monami, a woman with no memory. En route to Yamagata Prefecture in northern Japan in hopes of seeing winter blooming cherry blossoms, called keio-zakura, Monami had met with an accident. She can’t recall why she has come, nor that she has a husband and child waiting for her in Tokyo. Nevertheless, love blooms between Tasuku and Monami. But is it destined to be as fleeting as the ephemeral winter blossoms?

16 years ago, an incident occurred and all inhabitants on an island were killed. The truth to this incident was covered up overnight by the authorities. Everything was supposedly blown over by fully prepared concealment. However, there were two boys who happened to survive by a twist of fate… One boy, Michio Yuki, became an incredibly beautiful and very clever evil person who plots revenge on the government. The other boy, Yutaro Garai became a priest who pursues peace and justice. Evil and justice. Darkness and light. They shared the same past, but it brought them to be completely opposites of each other.

Yuki finds about “MW”; the horrible chemical-weapon which caused the incident years ago, and finally obtains it. With “MW”, he tries to move his plan of terminating all mankind with himself…
