The brown-haired young man’s mind flashed with a memory.
Beneath a certain bridge, in a desolate-looking underpass, a tall, bald man leaned against a pillar.
Scattered around were dozens of people, some standing, some sitting—each with distinct appearances, none of them seemed like ordinary nobodies.
Jiang Jian Yue immediately noticed the swordsman wielding a Western sword.
After all, his design was quite striking.
A rather thin youth was arguing with him, his face filled with anger.
“What’s the point of continuing like this?”
“Curtain Cluster, The Light Extinguishers, whatever—let them do whatever they want! GPRI is already gone!”
The bald man’s face, marked with deep lines, showed no emotion.
His voice was cold.
“I don’t oppose you leaving.”
“I never said I wanted to leave!”
The thin youth shouted through gritted teeth.
“Minister! Kawasaki Base only has us left—are we supposed to keep making meaningless sacrifices?”
“This is an emergency. We should cooperate with the Japanese Government!”
The bald man narrowed his eyes, his expression dark.
“Have you forgotten the tragic cost of Chernobyl?”
“It’s written in the code that cooperation with any country’s government is strictly forbidden, isn’t it?”
[Soviet Union: 666, does this involve me too]
[Slandering the Soviet Union again]
[Learning from Hollywood, all villains are Russians, huh]
[Better than those anti-China oddities]
“GPRI has been destroyed. It’s impossible for it to be revived.”
“It’s not over yet!”
The bald man spoke with overwhelming force.
“As a member of the Clearing Squad, you must be prepared to give your life.”
“Rebuilding has never been Kawasaki Base’s concern. Our mission has always been ‘clearing’.”
“Better to be a shattered jade than an intact tile.”
[Japan has gone crazy]
[This bald guy doesn’t seem to be Japanese, though. He’s so dark]
[Maybe he got smoked by the Tokyo Great Barbecue]
[One Hundred Million Jade Fragments! All black cards loaded!]
[Military advice from a Showa staff officer]
[This national trait, this Samurai Code]
[I’m not afraid of fighting. Hearing about war just excites me.]
[Explosive!]
“I am a warrior executing my mission. I cannot hesitate, cannot hesitate…”
The flashback ended.
The brown-haired youth jumped down into the alley through a window, opened his Personal Terminal, and saw a message—
“Ryuzan is dead.”
OP, start.
Jiang Jian Yue sipped her soda, noticing that two new characters appeared in this OP silhouette.
One was beside Kaori Onishi, a youth with light blue braids… probably male, but to put it simply, the kind of trap character.
The other, Jiang Jian Yue recognized—Yamanoi Yayoi, who had gone to Roppongi with them.
So that little girl was also a member of the main group.
Hiss…
But yesterday, she was too busy being envious of her abilities—although she had fast recovery herself, it couldn’t be used on others.
When Jiang Jian Yue played online games, she usually chose healer roles and really wanted a skill like that.
After the OP, the first scene moved to the Tokushu Jishou Taiou Honbu reception room.
Yuki Asahi’s conflict with the punks, and Yamanoi Yayoi’s first appearance also took place here.
[Is the loli part of the main group]
[Blue hair seemed to appear in the OP]
[Why is the main character getting fired up]
[Correction slap]
[I must correct adults like you!]
[The SEX squad is so accommodating]
[I’m dying of laughter, what the heck is the SEX squad?]
As more people filled the reception room, after Yuki Asahi’s internal monologue, he began to use his abilities.
In the animation, emotions were simply expressed as floating Art Text in the air.
And to amplify someone else’s emotions, a pair of invisible hands would pull at the letters.
Devouring was even simpler—literal eating by a mouth.
[Oune’s hand, good man]
[Hayek’s move is too ruthless]
[This ability is a bit strong, it’s basically mind reading]
[It can strengthen and erase too. Isn’t that basically psychological control?]
[Nerf Yuki Asahi]
[Roll back Yuki Asahi]
[Seems it’s not erasure, but transferring someone else’s emotions onto yourself. There’s probably a limit]
After devouring the emotions, Yuki Asahi was exhausted, like a dog.
Jiang Jian Yue couldn’t quite understand.
Yuki Asahi volunteered to act as bait—she had originally thought this plan came from Tokushu Jishou Taiou Honbu and Yuki Asahi just agreed.
This child… really pushes himself hard.
Jiang Jian Yue suddenly felt she’d been too cold to Yuki Asahi that morning.
When she saw the woman called Dream Serpent place her hand on Yuki Asahi’s shoulder, Jiang Jian Yue took a big gulp of soda, squinting without commenting.
After the Vice Minister reported the matter to the Minister above, the scene shifted to Roppongi.
The light blue-braided youth appeared.
He was shopping for clothes, curious about the sudden evacuation alarm.
The store clerks were also confused, asking each other, “Is this a drill?”
But it wasn’t.
Mall staff rushed in, demanding evacuation.
The youth didn’t panic like the others, because he was an esper—until he was ambushed by a GPRI Hunter.
Only then did he realize there were differences even among espers!
[Such a cute boy, pout a bit]
[A trap, a soft and fragrant trap]
[Battle-damaged trap, too seductive]
[Most supported Hunter episode]
[There it is, the stomach punch!]
However, the bullet comments were all focused on other things.
Yuki Asahi’s heroic entry ended the trap discussions.
Thank you, Yuki Asahi.
You protected the purity of the bullet comments.
Then another comment appeared—
[Yuki Asahi could be considered a trap too]
Yuki is obviously handsome!
How can he be a trap?
Jiang Jian Yue subconsciously argued, even typing halfway before quickly deleting it.
So stupid, better not send it.
[Yuki Asahi.jpg declaring a war manifesto]
[Come to Roppongi, don’t let me see you. If I see your mask, I’ll rip it off and punch you in the face]
[Arrived in Tokyo, there’s definitely no good juice for you]
[Really haven’t given up?]
[At least Tokushu Jishou Taiou Honbu hasn’t given up. Can’t say the same for the Government]
[Laughing, “all-out effort”]
[Where’s the all-out effort?]
Outside the electronics store, TVs that had been playing various channels switched to a unified Live Broadcast.
After a blackout, the giant screen on the building began broadcasting news.
A family of three eating dinner turned to the TV.
People on the Tokyo Metro clutched their phones as the same voice echoed.
[It’s heating up]
[Are we about to watch a live monster fight?]
[No other shows on this track]
[Where can I send gifts]
[Streamer, too many white texts in the chat, can you increase the speech level]
The scene shifted to ordinary citizens’ perspectives.
Curiosity was the undercurrent of this viewpoint.
As the battle began, the excitement grew.
During the fight, other segments were interspersed—
GPRI’s emergency response.
Kaori Onishi looking up at the big screen in shock.
A phone call scene between the Minister of General Affairs and an unknown Cabinet member.
[Is that GPRI Hunter behind Kaori-chan?]
[It’s over]
[I scrolled back, it’s him]
[Laughing, Lone Wolf appeared]
[She’s my only daughter (crying)]
On screen, citizens’ emotions peaked as the Werewolf appeared.
After all, it was a truly terrifying monster.
People instinctively felt revulsion, which then turned into positive feelings toward Yuki Asahi.
At that moment, the golden smoke effect surrounding Yuki Asahi burned hotter as the hopes of countless people before the screen intensified—as if he was about to burst into flames.
[Could this ability also be strengthened by collective belief?]
The anime didn’t explain Yuki Asahi’s understanding of his powers directly, but through subtle depictions, seasoned viewers could guess.
[Too OP]
[If someone’s face was a camera, wouldn’t they be invincible]
[Concept God: Live Broadcast Yuki Asahi]
Lol she really is like a mother, even went to defend his handsmomess
