Some journeys begin after the end…

After time fractures in a mysterious disaster, one survivor and his faithful Shiba Inu journey through the remnants of civilization.

Synopsis

In a world fractured by a mysterious disaster that splintered time itself, one survivor and his loyal Shiba Inu travel through ruins where the past and future bleed together. Shattered cities linger in half-collapse, rivers flow in broken currents, and the sky shifts without warning. Their journey is more than survival—it is a search for meaning amid echoes of what was lost, and the fragile hope of what might still be.

The Last Shiba is a post-apocalyptic tale of resilience, loyalty, and the enduring bond between man and companion. With cinematic scope and emotional depth, it captures both the vastness of a broken world and the quiet strength that carries us forward.
