About
A quiet provincial city in modern Japan.
At first glance, it seems like an ordinary world, but there exists a mysterious place spoken of in urban legends called the "Urashima Tunnel."
The Urashima Tunnel is said to follow these rules:
- Legend has it that you can obtain whatever you desire inside.
- However, as a price, time inside the tunnel flows extremely slowly compared to the outside world. In other words, even if you feel like only a short time has passed, years may have gone by outside.
This rule of "losing precious time in exchange for gaining something precious" is the central theme of the story.
