Story

Kakeru has the unforgettable memory of a time where he nearly drowned to death. As a result of this incident, he gains the supernatural ability to access the "Void Record" when his emotions begin to run high.

Accessing the "Void Record" allows Kakeru to increase the perceptions of his five senses and also physically manifest substances from his imagination. For example, he can physically change his clothes by simply thinking of it.

However, a mysterious organization has made it their goal to capture Kakeru to manipulate his abilities. Kakeru must not only fight against this organization, but also protect those precious to him.
