Once again, the timeless narrative of Gegege no Kitaro is recounted. The plot adheres to the customary structure of the Gegege no Kitaro franchise, which pictures Kitaro as a youngster dwelling in the Gegege Forest/Cemetery—a land brimming with countless Yokai. Kitaro's father is deceased, with only his eye surviving; he shares his abode with Sunakake Babaa, NekoMusume, and Konaki Jiji. However, unlike his predecessors, this Kitaro sports brown hair in lieu of the stereotypical grayish silver.
