Urban cross-section of Y Zone
The work is set in District Y, an international district gathering immigrant communities. On the surface, there is commerce and civic life, but on the other side, it is a dangerous area where police forces are weak and gangs control underground spaces. The work takes urban systems and the situation of marginalized groups as important backdrops.
Multiple character perspectives
The story's perspective spans different social positions: members of gang families, people living in slums with psychic powers, and activists speaking up for discriminated mutants. The characters come from different social classes and goals, and multiple storylines piece together the interconnected appearance of the same district.
Reading and Data System
Steam introduces it as a digital novel, and after the initial chapters, you can choose to read different character storylines. The game includes a glossary and character information. Click on terms in the text to find definitions, and you can also select scenes to return to read chapters. Text, interface, and subtitles are in Japanese.

The work was developed and published by BA-KU, with planning and script by Renya Setoguchi. The main art credits are Cornfreycu, and the music is composed by Sapporo Momoko. The Steam version was released in September 2022.

The Xie family, the flying girl, and the tower
Xie Liang is Chris's son and Siu's older brother, who later took over YS. He stayed home caring for his mother, whose Type B symptoms worsened, and introduced her to his childhood friend Michimichi. Due to her Type A status and special constitution, Sakura Onda was ostracized at school and part-time jobs. After staying indoors, she flew to Y District, where she met Shiu, who lived in Kristower, and gradually gained acceptance from Ryo and Michio.
The old story of the three Hui siblings
Rieko Haiue and Riko Eriko's brother Akira are a hybrid of Type A and Type B, capable of performing special missions with their "delivery" ability. After buying a gift, he fell ill and rushed to Y District to look for his sister, only to be mistakenly injured by the sisters who didn't know his appearance, mistaking her for a monster. Xie Liang then ended his suffering and killed for the first time. The sisters later lived in the Cedro Housing Complex, helping the displaced Sashenka and leaving the complex to protect him.
Trained as a physician at Rose Club Yotachikawa
Ryoma Tachikawa, who possesses the ability to empathize, enters the Rose Club after Miao disappears and meets Chris, who has not yet taken over YS. After experiencing a club attack together, Chris turns to the gang leader, while Tachikawa, witnessing Miao's death, chooses to work at a Type B specialized hospital. Their past connects the gang with the hospital storyline.
Hospital attack during birthday party
National Makigawara Hospital, also known as Type B shelter, cared for female patients on the third floor of Ward B by Misa Nomi, including Hiromi Uchida. When the Eight Dragons Society PLA attacked the hospital under the pretext of treating and liberating patients, the ward was holding a birthday party. Caregivers treat a choking patient, but Deputy Leader Camilla mistakes her for an act of violence; Doff questions the practices of harming patients and nurses during his actions. The drug Neo Rose can temporarily relieve symptoms, but care and daily life after discharge have yet to be resolved.
