After the initial season, Tomoharu is presented with a predicament. Refusing to enter into an agreement with an "akuma" would mean forfeiting his cherished comrade, Takatsuki. But if he follows through, he jeopardizes his very being, leading to him and his apparitional pal Misao becoming Asura Cryin'. The school's leaders classify this as humanity's ultimate peril. Additionally complicating matters, Tomoharu and Misao have recalled aspects of their earlier lives: a world that they were previously unaware of.
