About Twin Spica

Twin Spica (Futatsu no Spica) blends supernatural, sci-fi and drama by Group TAC (2003). Below is a fresh retelling of what the story is about. The premise: When Kamogawa Asumi was just a baby, her mother was grievously injured when a rocket crashed to the ground. Five years later, having been in a coma all the time, Asumi's mother finally dies, and the little girl struggles to come to terms with the death of a mother she barely remembers.

Soon after, in the midst of her turmoil, she crosses paths with "Lion-san", a peculiar figure wearing a lion mask and claiming to be a ghost. Lion-san helps Asumi to bury her mother's ashes, and finally, Asumi reaches her own decision: "When I grow up, I'm going to be a rocket pilot."

With supernatural at the core, spirits, curses and unexplained forces shape both mood and plot. If you count yourself among fans of eerie, otherworldly settings, put it on your list.
