Story

MAL posted:

A.D. 2115—the island nation once called Japan is now known as the "17th Far East Imperial City Management District."

The citizens were promised a life of peace in exchange for some of the comfort they were used to having. People believed their lives would never change and tomorrow will be the same as today. No one suspected the impending doom which their society was about to face.

"Degradation"—a rare disease which led to the total disintegration of the human body to a mere pile of sand was slowly but surely spreading throughout the world.

Tohru Kazasumi, an ordinary student becomes embroiled in a multi universal battle between his world and the parallel world of "Frontier S (Stratos)." This meant that Tohru must fight himself from an alternate world.

Their futures collide as their paths cross.

Will both worlds ever find peace?

I've been kind of enjoying this series. I wish they would expand on some of the things that are happening in the background, but as something to watch when waiting for things to do, it's not bad.

Not a cute boy, just a boring girl.
This show is pretty cool so far at ep 6.

It's cheating to only kill off one of the pair of a character or reuse them for the timekeepers' avatar though.

Also I was totally not expecting that betrayal cut at the end of episode 6.
