Red Data Girl

Fifteen-year-old Izumiko Suzuhara longs for an ordinary school life, but her upbringing makes that feel out of reach. Raised in an isolated mountain shrine, she’s been kept sheltered and has grown intensely shy—made even more complicated by a strange trait: electronics tend to break the moment she touches them.

Determined to change, Izumiko takes small steps toward a new start, only for her world to shift further when her guardian, Yukimasa Sagara, brings his son Miyuki to the shrine and assigns him as her lifelong attendant and protector. The arrangement is tense from the beginning; Izumiko and Miyuki have known each other since childhood, and their history is anything but friendly. As questions arise about what Izumiko truly is—something her guardian hints at in unsettling, mythic terms—the two are forced to navigate their resentment, their roles, and the mysterious forces surrounding her.
