Okuda is a television director and things just don't seem to go well for him at work. Even his own son Yousuke would rather watch videos on the internet than watch the programs he made.

The world ended on February 29th. In the ruins of Tokyo, gravely wounded Cat-girl and Daddy Eyeball are surrounded by people who have turned into vampires.

In place of Ratman who cancelled at the last minute, Mana joins Kitaro and the others on their trip. They're headed to an inn exclusive to youkai - the Immortal Onsen. Everyone's getting the most out of the hot springs, but suddenly, the inn is wrapped in an unsettling noise. The source is underground, the riotous energy from Mt. Fuji. Appeasing it is the job of the owner of the inn, but the current proprietress, Nebutori, is so fat she can't always do her work. Mana offers to serve in her place. Mana and Kitaro go into the caves of Mt. Fuji, and a huge shadow closes in on them...!?

The Emperor of the European youkai has been resurrected. "There is only one path left to you. Ruin!" Backbeard has joined forces with Nurarihyon and devoured a city. It has caused humanity's loathing of youkai to increase. Anti-youkai laws are established, and the government takes out one youkai terrorist after another. Amidst all this, the youkai hatred of humans grows. The wave of feeling swamps the GeGeGe Forest and anti-human youkai begin to appear. In order to prevent humans and youkai from clashing, Kitaro goes to the prime minister, determined to bring her around.

Despite the efforts of Kitaro and the others, the battle between human and youkai intensifies! Will everything turn out the way Nurarihyon planned?!

Using Rei and Ibukimaru's techniques, and Cat-girl's life, a portal is opened to another dimension. Mana searches for Kitaro, racing into that place which is neither this world nor the other. Finally, she catches sight of Kitaro, but...!? Meanwhile, moment by moment, the earth is pushed closer to the tipping point by Backbeard. How will this war end, and will Kitaro return?!
