Mirage of Blaze (炎の蜃気楼, Honō no Mirāju) is a 49-volume Japanese light novel series written by Mizuna Kuwabara, published under Shueisha's Cobalt label.

Takaya Ougi, a high school student, wants nothing more than to protect his best friend Yuzuru Narita and live a normal life.

As they ascend to the living world to renew their ancient war, Naoe, Takaya, and two other possessors gear up to prevent that from happening.

The OVA resumes the plot of the anime television series, yet incorporates several new developments, among them the question of unswerving loyalty and personal honor.

With the help of his vassal and fellow possessor Haruie, the two are successful in tracking him down, only to discover that Murashige is after a 400-year-old mandala (a Buddhist ritualistic artifact and meditative aid) made of the hair of the deceased Araki clansmen.

Unresolved sexual and psychological tension dominates their initial exchange, and it's uncertain whether these two powerful possessors will resolve their differences and work together against this latest threat.
