Synopsis

The Anime Lad

Kotarou lives in Kazamatsuri, a modern city where extensive planting has filled the landscape with trees and flowers. He can rewrite his own body to become stronger or faster. Together with five girls from school, he investigates supernatural mysteries. Local curiosity now includes physical modification and unusually aggressive urban greenery.

Super Eyepatch Fox

Kazamatsuri combines modern city life with dense trees and flowers. Kotarou attends school there and possesses an ability that can alter his physical limits. Five girls join him in investigating supernatural incidents around the city. The first episode runs forty-eight minutes, giving the setting and its central mysteries an extended introduction.

Gigguku

Kazamatsuri already feels unusual before the supernatural mysteries begin because greenery has overtaken so much of the modern city. Then Kotarou can rewrite his own body to become stronger or faster. Put him beside five school investigators and the premise gains a dangerous tool for pursuing every strange local question.

Father's Basement

A male student with five girls investigating supernatural events is familiar source material, and a forty-eight-minute premiere leaves plenty to introduce. The useful distinctions are concrete. Kazamatsuri is a modern city dominated by intentional greenery, while Kotarou can alter his own body. Both elements make the local mysteries feel tied to the setting rather than randomly imported.

Rewrite is set in the fictional city Kazamatsuri, where treeplanting and afforestation have caused the city to become overgrown with trees and flowers in much the same way that other cities are filled by buildings. However, while most of the city appears to be rural, there are many traditional city elements as well.
