Sakakibara Koichi is a 15-year-old boy who’s forced to move to a suburban town in the mountains to live with his grandparents in the spring of 1998. One day, he suffers a seizure brought on by a chronic lung condition and collapses, but luckily, he’s taken to the hospital in time to save his life. While in recovery at the hospital, he sees a beautiful girl wearing an eye patch and becomes fixated on her before she makes an odd remark about the morgue on the second floor and leaves suddenly. He meets up with her again when he attends middle school. Her name is Misaki Mei, and Koichi can’t help but notice how the other students and teachers at the school seem to treat her as if she doesn't exist. However, when tragedy strikes several of their classmates, she’s the only person who can help him unravel the mystery behind a string of accidental deaths. ~~ Adapted from the novel "Another" by Yukito Ayatsuji.
