Summer 2024

Over a century ago, astral mages under persecution from the Empire banded together and established the Nebulis Sovereignty under three founding families: Lou, Hydra, and Zoa. With the leadership of Millavair Lou Nebulis VIII, the Sovereignty aims to minimize casualties in their conflict with the Empire—a stance the extremist Zoas disagree with. Tensions rise between the families as the upcoming election to decide the next leader approaches. The Zoas are willing to do anything to achieve success; however, a world-ending war may ensue should they be victorious.

Princess Aliceliese “Alice” Lou Nebulis XI has no choice but to cooperate with any potential allies in order to advance towards her ultimate goal of ending the conflict that has long tormented everyone involved. This includes Iska—one of the Empire’s greatest warriors and her greatest rival.

With the help of producer Masaya Kaburagi, Aquamarine “Aqua” Hoshino and Kana Arima have landed the roles of Touki and Tsurugi in Lala Lai Theatrical Company’s stage adaptation of the popular manga series Tokyo Blade. Co-starring with them is Aqua’s girlfriend, Akane Kurokawa, who plays Touki’s fiancée, Princess Saya. Due to the fanbase preferring Tsurugi as Touki’s love interest, Saya has made fewer and fewer appearances in the manga, making it difficult for Akane to fully immerse herself in the role. Her struggles are compounded by differences between the play’s script and the original work—differences that also frustrate Tokyo Blade’s author, Abiko Samejima.

Aqua, however, is more concerned with his personal goals than he is with the play. He has only one objective in mind: to grow closer to director Toshirou Kindaichi and find out what he knows about Aqua’s mother, Ai.
