Kyoko Tohno is a girl with knowledge of the Epitaph of Twilight. She is the main focus of the third Liminality episode.    Kyoko's character in The World is named Kyo. She is close friends with both Sieg and Yuki-chin and plays with them regularly.    Kyoko is a high school student in the city of Hida-Takayama. Kyoko's mother is an editor of a local magazine and her father is a translator. They moved to the city two years ago to study the indigenous culture there. Though Kyoko's parents managed to become accepted by the people there, Kyoko still feels like an outsider and eventually plans to leave the city. In a sense her current life is a real world example of the concept of Liminality.

While playing the newly released MMORPG &lsquo;The World&rsquo;, Minase Mai and Tomonari Kasumi collapsed in the real world and were sent to the hospital after hearing a mysterious sound. Only Mai had recovered while her friend Kasumi had slipped into a mysterious coma. Mai is later approached by the creator of &lsquo;The World&rsquo;, Tokuoka Junichiro, who unveils to her that, just like her friend, six other players across the country had also collapsed while playing &lsquo;The World&rsquo; and are now in mysterious comas. What exactly is &lsquo;The World&rsquo;, what is this mysterious sound Mai keeps on hearing, and why are people slipping into comas from this game? Minase, Junichiro and their acquaintances set off to get to the bottom of this problem before any further harm happens.<br><br>
