Synopsis:

In a world sustained by intricate clockwork mechanisms, Naoto Miura dreams of mastering his craft but struggles to find his footing. His life is irrevocably altered when RyuZU, an enigmatic automaton crafted by the legendary Y, appears unexpectedly in his apartment. This arrival draws the attention of Marie Bell Breguet and her protective bodyguard, Vainney Halter, introducing Naoto to a world of established clockmaking lineages and hidden agendas.

As Naoto and Marie become entangled in a dangerous conflict, they uncover a disturbing truth about their planet’s foundations—a slow mechanical decay concealed by powerful forces. The series explores themes of legacy, innovation versus tradition, and the nature of humanity's reliance on technology within a visually rich setting of Victorian-inspired clockwork cities and detailed automatons. It offers a thoughtful examination of progress, history, and the potential consequences of tampering with the very fabric of existence.
