Story

In the popular MMORPG world 'Union' there existed a legendary party named Subaru.

This party, made up of a group of childhood friends and elementary schoolers, exceeded the limits of the game with their various senses.

However, due to an incident which resulted in a death, 'Union' ended its service and the group of childhood friends went separate ways.

Six years later, highschooler Haruto logged into the new 'Reunion' and reunited with a single girl.

Asahi—one of old 'Subaru' party members, and his childhood friend who should have died six years ago. Is she a digital ghost, or...?

Character Names & Descriptions

Haruto Amou

Voice: Kengo Takanashi

Subaru's advance guard who was the always-positive center of the group of friends. After Asahi's death, he spent six years living an empty life in a daze.

Sense: Fighting Spirit
The ability to control the aura that flows within the body. This sense makes the beholder a skilled attacker with high attack and defense.

Asahi Kuga

Voice: Nichika Omori

Subaru's unbounded, cheerful female guardian. She perished in her real life six years ago during gameplay.

Sense: Mind Reading
A sense that allows the beholder to influence the hearts of others. Asahi's unique sense--”Profeata (the future sight)"--is the ultimate version of this sense.

Satsuki Usui

Voice: Akari Kitō

Subaru's advance guard who was once a tomboyish girl. She doted on Haruto, whose heart was broken after Asahi's death.

Sense: Sorcery
By contracting a spirit and employing its power, the beholder can use magic. The number of spirits the beholder can make a contract with depends greatly on the person's aptitude.

Voice: Kaito Ishikawa

Subaru's advance guard who is calm and collected. He was in love with Asahi, and comes to despise Haruto after her death.

Sense: Laws of Nature
A sense that rules over the laws of the world. Apart from analysis and disassembly, when mastered, this sense gives the beholder the ability to teleport physical matter.

Clive Vivali

Voice: Takuma Terashima

Subaru's guardian. He's the only member logging in internationally among the group of childhood friends. He's a free spirit who's not easy to figure out.

Sense: Transformation
A sense that allows the beholder to change the nature and properties of items. Many players that have this sense tend to be unpredictable.

Nozomi Kusaka

Voice: Yumiri Hanamori

Subaru's guardian who is very reserved. Six years after Asahi's death, she became a model for teen magazines.

Sense: Dream Realization
A sense that allows the beholder to turn imagination into reality. The sense depends greatly on the user's level of imagination, and the kind of sense can differ with each individual.

Elicia

Voice: Chika Anzai

A mysterious girl who often shows up where Haruto and his friends are. It appears that she knows something about Asahi's reappearance...?

Sense: Mind Reading
