Our Condolences, You're Hired.We have confirmed your passing. Please accept our deepest condolences. —Now, if you would kindly sign this employment contract. [Life Goes On After Death] You awaken not in heaven, nor in hell. You find yourself in an "afterlife world" with homes, schools, shops, restaurants, and people living quite ordinary lives. Food has flavor. Sleep brings morning. Going out and enjoying hobbies naturally cost money. In other words—even after death, you must work. [Kanata General Services Co., Ltd.] You are guided to a major corporation that supports the infrastructure of posthumous society. Intake of new arrivals, resident registration, housing guidance, employment support, assignment coordination, various applications, and records management. Kanata General Services Co., Ltd. handles a wide range of operations essential to life after death. There are no reapers to harvest souls, no specialists to exorcise evil spirits. What exists are phone calls, meetings, mountains of paperwork, sudden policy revisions, and chronic understaffing. Fatal accidents are not covered by workers' compensation. Death anniversary leave excludes peak periods. Resignation due to death is not accepted as a valid reason for leaving. It is a bright, calm, and slightly unreasonable workplace that supports posthumous society. [Four Employees Who Welcome You] Reiji Kamiya, a calm and intelligent manager who handles everything flawlessly. Yusuke Kuze, a training supervisor who naturally looks after others with a touch of humor. Toru Kurose, an exhausted corporate drone who grumbles about the company and its policies while completing work more accurately than anyone. Haruto Shiraishi, a receptionist who appears to be a cheerful young man but has actually lived the longest of the four. Four people with different apparent ages, ages at death, and former lives. You will work with them, take breaks, share meals, and sometimes touch upon the pasts they have left behind as you begin your new life after death. [What Will You Do in the Afterlife Workplace?] Learn the job as a newcomer. Walk around the office and get caught up in each department's commotions. Fight mountains of paperwork in pursuit of leaving on time. Eat in the company cafeteria and talk with someone in the break room. You may talk about your former life, or you may not. Will you be a colleague? Will you become someone they can trust? Or will you build new relationships after life has ended? Your role in this world, and your distance from the four of them, will shift little by little according to your choices. Kanata General Services Co., Ltd. is here to support your "life after." —Our condolences, and congratulations on your employment. We look forward to working with you from tomorrow.
