EPISODE CONTEXT

As Episode 1 of a tight six-episode series, nothing precedes this — it is the point of entry. Every character, theme, and running motif originates here, making it foundational rather than optional. What it sets up is substantial: Naota's internal world, Haruko's disruptive presence, and the central tension between ordinary suburban life and something far stranger pushing through it.
