When his parents finally get sick of sending him money he is thrown a lifeline by Yoake Ryou, a representative of the RELife Company.

After an invasion of Tokyo from an alternate universe, Youji’s unit is sent through the gateway to this alternate dimension to push back the invaders, taking him away from his beloved anime and manga.

He and his companions were given little choice; serve in the militia defending the region from the various monsters or starve, and so they struggle to make a living as soldiers.

Teamwork may be the only thing that can keep them alive, but for that they actually need to function as a team.

He never knows exactly what he’s supposed to prevent, but that doesn’t stop him from trying. For all his cynicism Satoru wants to help others, because there is one instance from his childhood, far enough back that he barely remembers any of it, where he failed.

Satoru’s plan to save Kayo involves ‘kidnapping’ her and hiding her in a bus.
