Summary
Following the critically acclaimed I Am Setsuna and LOST SPHEAR, Tokyo RPG Factory's ONINAKI takes inspiration from classic Japanese role-playing games to create a brand-new experience for modern technology. With exciting new action-RPG gameplay, players will explore the world as a mysterious Watcher named Kagachi, duty-bound to sever the bonds that tie the Lost to this world. With Kagachi's guidance, these wandering souls in the world of the Beyond can continue the cyclical process of reincarnation over again.
STORY
Reincarnation is the foundation of our way of life. We celebrate the lives we ve been given, and offer up prayers for the next.
It is grief of death which shackles the living, and causes the dead to stray. Indeed, there is no greater affront to reincarnation.
So do we turn our grief to joy as we send off the dead.
But the souls of those who held back their tears in life still need salvation in death. A duty that falls to the Watchers.
Their task is to guide the wandering souls known as the Lost, and serve as keepers of the Living World and the Beyond.
The Watchers sever the bonds that tie the Lost to this world, and send them on to the next. They navigate the emotions of the living and the dead. They prize life above all else.
This is the story of one Watcher.
