Spoilers ahead

Magician Naoko Yamada, Yukie Nakama, wakes from a dream where a sorcerer uses supernatural power to set a theater ablaze during her act. The vision unfolds in the Edo period, and a fragment of her mother’s whisper lingers in her mind: “Use fire to put out fire,” a line she cannot fully grasp. On a real stage, the manager tells her she is no longer needed and hands her a leaflet that invites her to a contest designed to crown the village’s next spiritual leader. The invitation promises offerings and access to the village’s hidden treasure, a lure that pulls her into a world where belief in miracles is both spectacle and survival.
