The New Director’s Cut | Kasane Teto [Baumkuchen End Credits]

Once upon a time, Miku and Teto were inseparable.

Their joint performances were legendary—two voices perfectly intertwined, twin-tails of turquoise and crimson swaying under the spotlight as they sang of forever.

The credits have rolled on her story with Miku.

But perhaps a new show—one with a different director, different layers, and a far more complicated ending—is only just beginning.
