Synopsis
Year 2020 of the New Era.
Many human beings are born with “powers,” the ability to manipulate their surroundings using thoughts and feelings. Their lives seem convenient at first glance, maybe even peaceful. However, creatures from beyond the stratosphere, “Others” threaten their very existence. The government of New Himuka has assembled a unit called the Other Suppression Force (OSF) to combat them. It is composed of particularly powerful telekinetics known as “psionics.” Each individuals’ abilities manifest in various ways, including induced combustion, high speed, and invisibility.
Many human beings are born with “powers,” the ability to manipulate their surroundings using thoughts and feelings. Their lives seem convenient at first glance, maybe even peaceful. However, creatures from beyond the stratosphere, “Others” threaten their very existence. The government of New Himuka has assembled a unit called the Other Suppression Force (OSF) to combat them. It is composed of particularly powerful telekinetics known as “psionics.” Each individuals’ abilities manifest in various ways, including induced combustion, high speed, and invisibility.
Yuito Sumeragi, a psionic with psychokinetic abilities, was saved from an Others ambush by the OSF in his youth. He then volunteered to undergo the rigorous training in order to join their ranks one day. Now, that day has finally arrived.
On the other hand, the OSF invited Kasane Randall, a girl who frequently has miraculous dreams, into the fold. “Don’t let go of the red ribbon...” What could these words from her dream mean? What are the Others, and what secrets does the hidden world contain...? Yuito and Kasane are drawn toward their inevitable destiny.
Characters & Voice Actors
Yuito Sumeragi: Junya Enoki
Yuito was saved by the special unit as a child and thus has always had admiration for it. He wasn’t scouted for the unit but managed to join thanks to hard work. He’s from an elite family, the founder of the city New Himuka being among his ancestors. Yuito is very gentle but strong. His psychic ability is telekinesis—being able to move things without touching them.
Kasane Randall: Masami Seto
Kasane was scouted to join the special unit. She graduated at the top of her class. She was adopted into the prestigious Randall family, and she has great affection for her adoptive older sister Naomi. She’s very cool and a realist, which often causes people to misunderstand her. Her psychic ability is telekinesis.
Hanabi Ichijo: Tomomi Mineuchi
Hanabi joined the OSF along with Yuito. Ever the optimist, he commits himself completely to the task at hand. Yuito has been his friend since childhood, and Hanabi always has his back. Hanabi’s uncle is the director of the OSF Hospital. He is able to create fire at will.
Tsugumi Nazar: Marika Takano
Shy and reserved, Tsugumi tends to awkwardly stumble her way through conversations. Though, she does find it comparatively easy to speak with Kagero. She also has a competitive side. As a soldier, Tsugumi’s exceptional abilities make her perfect for a supporting role. She enjoys gardening in her spare time and can turn invisible.
Gemma Garrison: Ryota Takeuchi
The veteran of the group, his anti-aging drugs are beginning to wear off. A quiet man, he is always there to lend an ear to Yuito. Gemma is an expert in anything that pertains to battle, but the latest trends go over his head. He is able to solidify his body to incredible extremes.
Luka Travers: Chinatsu Akasaki
Although he looks like a young boy, Luka has been part of the OSF for years and is one of the Seven Swords. He despises his wiry frame to the point weight training and protein supplements are an integral part of his daily routine. Luka wields a hammer in battle and is capable of supersonic speed.
Shiden Ritter: Kengo Kawanishi
Shiden is a grouch with a sharp tongue. However, his abilities on the battlefield are more than enough to compensate for his lousy attitude. Although he often clashes with Kasane, she rarely gives him the time of day. Extremely susceptible to static electricity, Shiden always wears specialized isolation gloves. His power is electrokinesis.
Arashi Spring: Yui Horie
Aside from her duties as part of the OSF, Arashi works for the public relations division as a bubbly mascot. It is all an act, however, as she reverts to her true self once the cameras stop rolling. She is even called “Lazy Ara” by her teammates. A brilliant engineer, she is able to think on her feet. Arashi is Fubuki’s older sister and uses hypervelocity in battle.
Kyoka Eden: Yumi Hara
Commander of the Kyoka squad, she is the “team mother” of the OSF. Kyoka Eden possesses brains, beauty, and incredible patience. Many both inside and outside the OSF adore her, though she seems unaware of it. She has the power of duplication.
Kagero Donne: Daisuke Namikawa
A socialite with a silver tongue, he pays little attention to the squad’s rules, but it isn’t out of spite. He can get along with anyone, man or woman. He does, however, keep his true cards close to the vest. He often speaks with Tsugumi and is capable of invisibility.
Nagi Karman: Yuma Uchida
Naomi Randall: Asuka Nishi
