Overview:
Hitomi
Kanzaki has always had a knack for athletics, but she's
also got an uncanny talent to tell the future through
tarot card readings. Her strange ability, however, becomes
the least odd thing about her when a strangely-dressed
man drags her to his world. Hitomi must now overcome
the evil forces that seek to take over Gaea, while still
trying to find a way back home to the planet that now
hangs in the sky above her.
