The main scenario for the game is written by Jun Maeda, known for titles such as <em>Air<\/em> and <em>Clannad<\/em>. The game is unique in the way it combines highly comedic dialogue, reminiscent of bishoujo games of the 2000s, with an emotionally stirring story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The game takes place in a world that is being attacked by mysterious extraterrestrial life-forms called Cancer. Conventional weapons have no effect on the Cancer and, as a result, humanity is driven to the brink of extinction. The majority of the world has fallen under the control of Cancer and the human population has rapidly decreased. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the midst of this crisis, humanity succeeds in developing a new type of weapon that has the power to damage the Cancer called Seraph. Young girls who are able to wield these new weapons are enlisted to a military base that is located within a school campus. These girls have been entrusted with humanity\u2019s final hope, and they fight to save the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The main protagonist, Ruka Kayamori, is a genius vocalist and guitarist formerly part of a legendary rock band. After becoming a member of the Seraph troop, she devotes herself to training with her comrades and the battle against the Cancer.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-001.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14303\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-001.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-001-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-001-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-001-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-001-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-001-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-001-696x392.jpg 696w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-001-1068x601.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-001-747x420.jpg 747w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-002.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14302\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-002.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-002-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-002-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-002-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-002-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-002-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-002-696x392.jpg 696w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-002-1068x601.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220724-211527-002-747x420.jpg 747w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Players follow the battles and daily lives of the girls in the Seraph troop from the viewpoint of Ruka.
