Synopsis:
In a near-future Japan struggling with economic instability, the military introduces Tactical Armor (TA), advanced combat suits designed to bolster national defense. The TAs offer unprecedented mobility but demand exceptional pilot skill, a challenge Yuushirou Gouwa readily accepts. As a skilled and privileged pilot from a prominent family, Yuushirou finds himself at the forefront of a burgeoning international arms race. His proficiency with the TA is tested by unforeseen circumstances when he encounters a cryptic young woman who warns him against a dangerous path. Yuushirou must navigate complex political currents and familial obligations as he grapples with the consequences of wielding such powerful technology and the unsettling possibility that his family holds secrets connected to the escalating conflict. The series explores themes of responsibility, technological advancement, and the moral implications of warfare within a tense, contemporary setting.
