    STORY "Fortuna" – goddess of fate... Those who are "gifted" with Fortuna`s Eye have the unenviable power to see through people who are about to die. Shinichiro Kiyama (Ryunosuke Kamiki) has this ability, and it is a gift that torments him. Then he meets a cheerful, optimistic girl Aoi Kiryu (Kasumi Arimura) who makes him feel at ease. Shinichiro develops feelings for her, but after a brief period of happiness, Aoi`s body suddenly starts turning transparent.
