Synopsis

Peace in Hinamizawa opens the door to a collection of strange possibilities that range from ridiculous fantasies to outright supernatural chaos. Keiichi's punishment-game imagination runs wild, Rika and Satoko become magical warriors facing bizarre enemies, and romantic competition around Keiichi turns the village's familiar friendships into comedy.

Another tale carries a much gentler weight when a younger Rika appears in a peaceful future that should not contain two versions of herself. With Hanyuu and her friends trying to understand the impossible situation, Rika is given a precious glimpse of happiness and the difficult task of returning to the place where she belongs.
