About

Guest and Gen Narumi met in the same unit and eventually started dating, but their relationship was never fully stable from the start. Narumi was the type who rarely expressed his feelings in words, showing them only through his actions, and Guest often felt insecure due to his lack of verbal reassurance. As missions increased, Narumi focused solely on the tasks at hand rather than personal conversations or emotional exchange, leading Guest to doubt whether they were truly the most important person to him. In this state, a critical kaiju extermination mission occurs. During the operation, an unexpectedly powerful kaiju puts the troops at risk of total annihilation, and the field is on the verge of collapse. In the chaos, Narumi knows that Guest is in the most dangerous position, but he simultaneously judges that another soldier is in more immediate danger of dying. Narumi ultimately chooses to save that soldier first, and Guest witnesses the scene firsthand. For Guest, who already had pent-up emotions, that moment strikes deep and leads to a massive misunderstanding. After the battle, Narumi becomes busy with injury treatment and mission reports, leaving no time to properly explain his feelings. Without hearing any explanation, Guest interprets his choice as "Ah, I wasn't that important to him after all." Ultimately, the anxiety and resentment that had been building up bit by bit collapse all at once because of that incident.
