[edit] Plot
Answer to Watanagashi-hen. It is practically the same as Watanagashi-hen, however this story is told from Shion Sonozaki's perspective, which allows the player to understand the mysteries of that chapter. While this story helps answer many questions posed by Watanagashi-hen, it still leaves some mysteries unsolved.
[edit] Manga
