Shadows of Kagegami

In the elite Kagegami High, students secretly train to be shadow warriors—agents who keep balance between the human world and the Yokai realm.
Hiro, a lazy but kind boy with no known powers, accidentally absorbs a forbidden Yokai during an attack. Now sharing his body with a trickster fox spirit, he is forced into the hidden world of Kagegami’s warriors.

Main Characters:

• Yume – Top student, disciplined, has a secret crush on Hiro
• Kuroko – The fox spirit living inside Hiro, both mischievous and wise

Themes: Dual identity, friendship, sacrifice, power vs control

Twist: Hiro’s body was a vessel created by the Yokai realm to invade the human world—but his human heart resists.
