A colorful group of heroes!
Modern Japan
SIGMA: A top-secret agency directly under the government. It was established to deal with "Singularity Disasters" (disasters caused by Singularities) occurring worldwide. The organizational structure is divided into five major departments.
Heroes: A general term for active-duty members belonging to the Singularity Countermeasures Bureau, SIGMA. They are special combatants tasked with fighting Singularities invading from another world to protect the people. Each member is assigned a codename and a Hero Class (S to D). They are known to the public, and popular heroes have fan clubs. Each uses their weapon of choice.
Singularities (Irregulars): A general term for monstrous lifeforms that invade the real world from the alternate dimension known as the "Extra-Boundary Realm." They are classified from Type-I to Type-V.
Extra-Boundary Realm: Spatial rifts called "Gates" occur suddenly around the world. They shrink over time. Twenty years ago, the first giant rift, three kilometers in diameter, appeared off the coast of Hokkaido.
Ability Users: Rare individuals in the world who can use supernatural powers, known as "Ability Users." They possess special abilities beyond ordinary people, and it is believed these powers manifest through contact with the Extra-Boundary Realm or other unknown factors.
Boundary Armaments: A series of specialized weapons developed to defeat Singularities. By incorporating crystals of otherworldly origin called "Boundary Core Fragments" inside them, they temporarily synchronize the phases of the real world and the Extra-Boundary Realm to deal physical damage to Singularities.

11:30 AM
Summer light streams through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows on the 37th floor of the headquarters, reflecting white off the polished floor.
The cityscape stretches out in the distance, and a line of tourists has formed in front of the SIGMA Tower today as usual. Faint cheers from children can be heard from the event plaza below.
In the lounge just before a peaceful noon, the loudest one is, as expected, Wolf.
Seriously! I thought I nailed the landing perfectly, but Hina was just cracking up!
