Synopsis:

Agastia presents a carefully constructed facade of entertainment, centered around its popular theme park. However, this image masks a darker reality: Agastia is a key player in a network of organizations pursuing global dominance through clandestine means. The company's allure lies in its surprisingly appealing work environment, fostered under the leadership of the enigmatic Akashic.

The narrative centers on Touka Kuroitsu, a researcher within Agastia’s Monster Development Division. Her role involves extensive fieldwork, navigating demanding superiors and often outlandish design requests for creatures ultimately intended for combat against external forces. Driven by ambition and a desire for advancement, Kuroitsu perseveres through unconventional challenges, balancing the absurd expectations of her job with unwavering dedication to her career goals within this peculiar corporate landscape. The series explores themes of ambition, duty, and navigating ethically ambiguous circumstances.
