==Interactive Story==
Throughout the project's creation period up to the project's completion, the organizers ran an interactive story where followers could decide the direction of the story through pollshttps://twitter.com/i/events/1389652360385998858.
The story was told in nine parts done by various contributors on the project, the story centered around a situation where Gojo Satoru is sent back in time and spends a day with Getou Suguru. The two characters visit a cat cafe, go shopping for a new clothes, watch a movie, visit an abandoned hot springs and spend the night there despite its dilapidated state, where they encounter the ghost of Fushiguro Toji before returning home.
