“Water Moon is a melancholy, reflective story about choice, identity, family, and regret.”
Hidden down a quiet Tokyo backstreet, a mysterious pawnshop appears only to those who are truly lost—a place where regrets can be traded and choices undone. On her first day as its new keeper, Hana Ishikawa discovers the shop ransacked, its most precious item stolen, and her father missing. When a strange visitor offers help instead of seeking it, the two embark on a surreal journey through puddles that open into other worlds, across midnight bridges and cloud-born markets. But as they draw closer to the truth, Hana must face a secret of her own—and a choice that cannot be unmade.
