Mushi-Shi Specials
1. The Shadow That Devours the Sun
A one-hour special which adapts a two-chapter manga. A powerful mushi appears during an eclipse, drawing other mushi to form a huge shadow that blocks the sun over a small village. Looking for clues about the mushi, Ginko meets a child who is afflicted by a strange disease that manifests itself when she is exposed to sunlight, and it does not take long for him to find out that both facts are related.
