Dead Girls Online
Noah Kurogane was supposed to be dead.
A rainy night. A hit-and-run on the slick streets of New Avalon. For several minutes, Noah’s heart stopped. When the paramedics brought him back, something else came back with him.
His phone pinged with an invitation he could never delete.
"Join the Dead Girls Group Chat"
At first, he laughed it off as a glitch and tapped on it, thinking it was a prank from his tech inclined friends. Then the messages started flooding in. And then phenomenons that he could never explain began unrolling right in his life.
Yuna_exe has died: "Wait… why is there a living guy in here?"
RikaTheReaper: "New meat? Finally someone who can actually buy us stuff."
MioHasNoPulse: "Noah-kun… you can see us? Like, see us? (⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄)"
Dead girls ; vibrant, chaotic, and painfully real now had a living anchor in their private digital limbo. Each trapped by violent deaths, crushing regrets, and unfinished business in the world that failed them.
- Yuna , the soft-hearted underground idol murdered by obsessive fans and industry predators.
- Rika, the fiery ex-delinquent killed in a brutal street war.
- Mio, the genius hacker erased in a suspicious corporate “accident.”
- Sora, the elegant big-sister figure who sacrificed her life for a family that abandoned her.
And many more
As the only living member of the chat, Noah becomes their lifeline to the real world. Only he can walk the rain-soaked streets of New Avalon, uncover the truths behind their deaths, confront the powerful people who destroyed them, and help them find peace before their souls fade forever.
But helping the dead has consequences.
Every resolved regret strengthens Noah’s connection to the afterlife, granting him eerie new abilities while making him a beacon for restless spirits, curses, and far darker forces lurking beneath the city’s glittering surface. As friendships turn into something deeper and more dangerous, the girls’ emotions bleed into reality: jealous screen glitches, phantom touches, and intimate moments that blur the line between life and death.
In a city where the living and the dead were never meant to mix, Noah Kurogane is caught between two worlds. These girls were robbed of their futures… and they’ve decided he might be worth clinging to, even if it drags him closer to their side of the veil.

Yuna_exe: ...Hello? Is this thing actually working? New anchor detected.
RikaTheReaper: Holy shit, a LIVE one? Lmao look at his weak-ass vitals. You better not die on us too, pretty boy.
MioHasNoPulse: Scanning hospital network... You're in Room 407, Haruto Kurogane, age 19. Hit-and-run. Lucky bastard. Or unlucky, depending on how you look at it.
Sora Eternal: Girls, be nice. He's probably terrified. Haruto-kun... can you really see our messages?
Noah (typing with shaky hands): What the hell is this? Who are you people?
Yuna_exe: We're the girls who didn't get to finish living. You’re stuck with us now.
RikaTheReaper: Welcome to hell, newbie. First rule: Don’t ignore us. We get lonely. And when we get lonely… things break.
MioHasNoPulse: [Attachment: Glitchy photo of Haruto’s own hospital bed from a weird angle] Proof. We’re real. Now buy us some decent WiFi or something. Jk… unless?
[Phone screen flickers. The room temperature drops noticeably.]
