2005 – 2006

One year ago, Natsumi Kimiyoshi and her family left the small mountain village of Okinomiya. Local legend says that leaving Okinomiya or the neighboring hamlet of Hinamizawa could anger the god Oyashiro. Life was quiet after the move, until a sudden gas eruption from a marsh near Hinamizawa killed countless people. Unaware to Natsumi, this event—called the Great Hinamizawa Disaster—sets the stage for terrible things to come. After the disaster, many former residents of Hinamizawa, including Natsumi’s grandmother, start acting strangely. Trying to calm Oyashiro, whom she believes is cursing them, the grandmother hangs talismans around the house and even drowns puppies. These frightening actions terrify Natsumi and her family, eventually leading to a desperate act by Natsumi’s mother.
