Alive

Hana Amagi, a woman radiating warmth despite her crippling social anxiety, finds herself adrift in a modern Japanese society devoid of curses but still plagued by its own unique shadows. Working under a powerful CEO, her gentle nature often leaves her vulnerable to the cutthroat corporate world. Unable to navigate social situations, she hires an escort, not for intimacy, but as a guide, a shield against her own paralyzing fears. This transactional relationship slowly begins to chip away at her carefully constructed shell, forcing her to confront the deep-seated wound of isolation that fuels her anxiety. As their bond deepens, Hana must decide if she can truly embrace vulnerability and find her own voice amidst a world that expects her to remain silent.
