Suzume

On a normal morning on her way to school, high schooler Suzume Iwato meets Souta Munakata, a young man who travels in search of abandoned places. After pointing him toward a nearby ruin, Suzume’s curiosity pulls her there as well—where she finds a lone door standing apart from everything else, hinting at a dreamlike world beyond that she can sense but cannot cross into.

Near the door lies a peculiar stone that springs to life as a cat-like creature the moment she lifts it, and in the confusion Suzume leaves the door open as she flees. That mistake releases the “keystone,” allowing a dangerous force from the other side to slip into Japan. Determined to undo what she set in motion, Suzume teams up with Souta—whose true purpose is to keep that evil from taking hold—to track down and seal the open doors before the damage spreads.
