When a massive alien flower known as "Darol" unexpectedly erupts in a deadly event, unleashing monstrous creatures that decimate the population of Japan, Rita is caught in the destruction—and killed. But then she wakes up again. And again. Caught in an endless time loop, Rita must navigate the trauma and repetition of death until she crosses paths with Keiji, a shy young man trapped in the same cycle. Together, they fight to break free from the loop and find meaning in the chaos around them.

Phenomenal animation but story wise the second half just feels tonally off putting from the first. Boy character bogs it down immensely
Kind of confused as to why they made 2 versions but neither are super faithful to the book? At least this one gave us the Rita/Keiji fight, also it looks bonkers bananas good. Add it to the long list of proof that every action movie looks good (or better) animated.
It follows a soldier caught in a deadly time loop after a massive alien flower unleashes monstrous creatures across Japan, forcing her to repeatedly relive the same day until she meets a fellow survivor.
Kenichiro Akimoto directed the 2026 Japanese animated science fiction action film.
It is rated R in the US.
It was released in Japan on January 9, 2026.
