Synopsis for Kagami no Kojou

Kokoro is a high school freshman. Or at least that’s how it’s supposed to be. A dark and very terrifying experience has left her with a severe case of social anxiety that has led her to drop out of school and withdraw from the world at home, where she spends her days grappling with the guilt having been disappointed by her parents’ eyes. .

One day the mirror in his room begins to shine. Pulled to the other side of the mirror by a girl wearing a wolf mask, Kokoro encounters a fairytale castle and six other children, all around her own age. The girl (who calls herself “Ookami-sama”) tells them that whoever finds the wish key hidden in the lock will have one wish granted. There are no rules, except one: If you stay after 5 p.m., the wolf will eat you.
