Synopsis:
Set against the backdrop of a recovering New York City in 1928, the Star Division finds itself embroiled in an unusual case. Shinjiro, a member of the team, is compelled into an elaborate scheme by the owner of a local theater, tasked with impersonating an actress for a new production. This forced transformation sends him on a city-wide pursuit as he grapples with his unwilling role.
Simultaneously, a mysterious young man arrives in the city with a hidden agenda, fixated on the Statue of Liberty and harboring a palpable resentment. The Star Division must navigate this escalating threat while ensuring the success of the theater's new performance. The narrative blends elements of intrigue and social commentary, exploring themes of identity, performance, and the anxieties simmering beneath the surface of a burgeoning metropolis.
