Ai wa Noroi no Nihon Ningyou

Kotobuki is an otaku with a passion for collecting figures. While going through his aunt's storage, he discovers a Japanese doll named Ai. His aunt cautions him that the doll is cursed and has been stored away for a long time because of it. Ignoring the warning, Kotobuki views Ai as just another figure to add to his collection. Ai, whose purpose is to frighten people away, feels disrespected by Kotobuki's indifference. However, she also recognizes that Kotobuki's interest in figures is genuine and filled with appreciation, and she is no exception to this.
