Super Eyepatch Fox

Peace leaves former soldier Toru restless and unemployed. A chance encounter with Chaika, a sorceress carrying a coffin, gives him somewhere to go. His adopted sister Akari joins them, turning an aimless postwar life into fantasy travel with dangerous work ahead.

Gigguku

Chaika arrives carrying a coffin and immediately gives Toru a reason to use the skills peace left idle. Add his practical sister Akari, and the traveling group has a wonderfully strange balance. The premise makes unusual luggage feel like an invitation to adventure.

Father's Basement

A coffin-carrying sorceress is an obvious mystery signal, and the setup works hard to make her strange. The surrounding postwar idea is stronger. Toru has skills built for a conflict that ended, so joining Chaika offers practical direction before it promises heroism.

Toru Acura is a 20-year-old retired soldier meandering through life now that the war has ended. He encounters Chaika Trabant, a 14-year-old sorceress carrying a coffin, and follows her in hopes of finding meaning to his life again.
