Synopsis:

Seventy-five years after the original conflict, the world encounters a new chapter in the saga of the Steel Angels. The narrative centers on Nako Kagura, a high school student whose life shifts dramatically after an unexpected encounter with Kurumi Mk. II. This accidental connection establishes a master-servant relationship, immediately drawing the attention of Nako’s friend Uruka. Driven by jealousy and a desire for Nako's affection, Uruka employs her father’s clandestine mecha technology in attempts to dismantle Kurumi. These actions inadvertently awaken other powerful Steel Angels, including Saki Mk. II and Karinka Mk. II, escalating the stakes and creating a complex web of loyalty, rivalry, and the unpredictable nature of artificial intelligence. The story explores themes of companionship, possessiveness, and the ethical considerations surrounding advanced technology in a world grappling with its legacy.
