Arisa, a general-purpose autonomous android, is equipped with a paranormal detection AI.
By combining image recognition, voice recognition, natural language processing, and other modalities, she can detect the probability that a target is a paranormal entity.
She has cameras even on her back, ultra-low-light night vision with a light amplification rate of one million times, echolocation via ultrasonic waves, olfactory devices, and other observational equipment—leaving no blind spots.
And above all—she knows no fear.
Developed under the leadership of Professor Arisu Shirakawa, Arisa seemed like the perfect tool for investigating paranormal phenomena.
As an android, perhaps she could expose the true nature of such entities.
Perhaps she could uncover the truth behind apparitions whose existence can’t be statistically verified beyond “almost certainly nonexistent.”
Just as robots are used for missions in extreme environments, humans could remain in safety while still conducting investigations.
A mysterious abandoned village hidden deep in the mountains.
A train that appears after the last service ends.
A woman whose face alone can tear married couples apart.
A derelict building that endlessly replays scenes from the past.
A visitor who rings the doorbell every night...
As Arisa continues her investigations, she is forced to come to a single, undeniable realization:
Paranormal entities are everywhere.
