Synopsis:

Driven by vivid nightly dreams of a fantastical realm, Ginta Toramizu finds his reality irrevocably altered when a portal opens before him, transporting him to MAR Heaven. This world is defined by ARMs—powerful, sentient weapons central to its history and conflicts. Initially captivated by the wonders of this new existence, Ginta soon discovers a darker undercurrent. The land bears the scars of devastating past wars, and whispers of another impending conflict ripple through its society. Alongside his steadfast companion, Koyuki, Ginta must navigate this complex world, grappling with the legacy of violence while striving to understand his role in its uncertain future. The series explores themes of belief, responsibility, and the consequences of historical trauma within a vibrant, intricately designed setting.
