Story

A boy named Neku wakes up in a crowded intersection of Shibuya in the heart of Tokyo – alone and unaware of how he got there. Then, he receives a text message: “Clear this mission... or face erasure. ” With that, Neku is thrust into a life-or-death game that sends him scrambling down streets paved with one riddle after another.
