Chihane Shiba belongs to the Shiba family, which has presided over sacred rites for generations, and she believes herself to be a god. The official site quotes her as saying she is pure but merely a god chosen by the Kami Haruka. Her assigned flower is the four o'clock flower, and her birthday, flowering elements, and magic remain undisclosed. The game is set in a closed-off village where girls are offered to a god in a repeated ritual, and the story shifts shape as the perspective changes. Ueda is affiliated with 81 Produce.
