The story 響談 “ぬけられぬ雨の吉原” (“Nukerarenu Ame no Yoshiwara”) is a “kyoudan” based on the claustrophobic room theme of Silent Hill 4. “Kyoudan” is a neologism meaning “sound narrative”, as a play on words pertaining to “koudan”, a traditional Japanese storytelling performance art. The story’s title can be translated to “No Escape from Rainy Yoshiwara” or “Yoshiwara in Inescapable Rain”. The Japanese track titles on disc two correspond to the note names for a chromatic scale used in ancient Buddhist chants.

“Nukerarenu Ame no Yoshiwara” was written and performed by the storyteller Ichiryusai Teisui VI (1939–2020), the first person to be designated a “living national treasure” (persons ensuring the survival of traditional Japanese arts that are in danger of disappearing) for koudan performances. The narrative’s atmosphere is backed by music provided by Akira Yamaoka, thus bringing to it the musical style of the Silent Hill series.
