Left with nothing but his soul, Yushin must fight tooth and nail by possessing any body he can to find his sister and uncover the truth behind her disappearance. With only seven days left before his soul dies, can he save him in time?

Aihama, Japan. The last years of the Edo period. One rainy evening, a group of men broke into an umbrella shop run by a brother and sister in town. Yushin's sister is cut down in front of Yui, leaving her alone in the world. The next thing he knows, he's looking at his own body – a disembodied spirit. This terrible incident disturbs the peace in this calm water. Beneath the surface lurks a complex, deep-rooted plot shrouded in mystery. Even death isn't enough to extinguish Yushi's spirit until Yui is safe. She will stop at nothing in her quest, going from body to body, possessing anyone and anything to save her sister. But with only seven days left before his soul leaves this world – can he save Yui in time?

It is a tale of rain, reincarnation and revenge.
