Synopsis

Tokyo is a city inhabited by both humans and ghostly entities, existing in two dimensions—seen and unseen—where spirits, apparitions, and demons coexist. For a long time, the balance between these dimensions has been maintained by the city's guardian crow, Karas, and its masters. However, this equilibrium has been disrupted by Eko, a former Karas, who seeks to seize power and impose order through force. Opposing him is Yurine, an entity representing the will of the people, who stands with her newly risen Karas. An ageless battle now rages across both dimensions, claiming the lives of both humans and spirits. Karas remains humanity's last hope.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 20

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
