Biography[]

Mirai is Miho's and Kentaro's daughter, Atsushi's and Junko's sister and Haru's granddaughter. She is the youngest member of her family. Her family moved to a Matsuoka house, where Atsushi found a mirror in an empty room. Spirit possessed him from the mirror and changed him. Atsushi started to abuse Mirai. Mirai seeked help from her sensitive friend Akane, who felt the spirits in the house and was kicked out by Atsushi. From her bedroom's window, Mirai screamed and called for Akane, who only ran away fearful. Two days before Christmas, Atsushi killed his whole family, leaving Mirai for last. Mirai was decapitated by Atsushi, who sawed her head off and left the body on her bed. He placed her head in a bag and took it with him to a forest, being taken there by Hajime, the father of Akane and taxi driver who didn't know he was his daughter's friend's killer.

In the forest, Atsushi set a casette to record and climbed to hang himself. The tape recorded Mirai's words from the afterlife, calling for him, as her ghostly head stared at him. Haajime was later warned that he had transported a "family killer" and was suddenly surprised by a vision of Atsushi in the back seat and saw that he left his bag from the forest where he was sitting. As he want to check it, he saw Mirai's ghostly face in the bag and her hands grabbed his head from backwards and pulled him back, after which, he disappeared. Akane eventually learned of Mirai's death, and had grown guilty for not helping her. She was often visited by her. While Akane was playing Kokkuri with Mayumi and Yuka, Mirai appeared to her, and Akane quickly left the class, leaving her friends puzzled. When Akane came home, Mirai appeared, and returned her bear key-chain to her.
