Nike lies among bright red flowers, a revolver in her hand. The new visual for ghost – end of night places the young protagonist against folds of white fabric, using a sharp contrast of red and white to frame an uneasy image.
Bandai Namco Filmworks released the second key visual and main trailer on November 10. Written and directed by Shingo Natsume and animated by MADHOUSE, the original film is scheduled to open in Japan on February 11, 2027.
The official main trailer introduces more of Nike's world and features the theme song by Hitsujibungaku.

Flowers in a virtual sky
The film takes place in a near future where a virtual network supports everyday life and people are selected at age 18. Nike has already been selected at 15, but struggles to find her place in that society.

The film's official website describes flowers in its virtual sky as visible forms of people's emotions. The separate world image shown here sets vivid digital shapes against a dark field, a different palette from the red-and-white promotional visual.
The people behind the film
Manga artist Natsume Ono created the original character concepts, while Norifumi Kugai is credited with character design. Natsume directs and writes the screenplay; Ohzora Kimishima composes the score.
The trailer features Hitsujibungaku's song 'life', written for the film. The new announcement also adds five voice cast members, including Takeo Otsuka and Atsumi Tanezaki, alongside previously announced leads Mayu Hotta and Issey Takahashi.
