Overview

Humanity's survival into the new millennium is attributed to a group of friends who created a symbol in their youth. As a doomsday cult's influence grows and a disaster unfolds in 1997, this symbol reappears. The narrative follows these friends as they attempt to avert global destruction.

The world is under the sway of an evil force, with 'The Friend' ruling as President of the World from behind Tokyo's fortified walls. While many see him as a savior, a resistance movement led by 'The Queen of Ice' prepares to act. Their plan is set for August 20, but a glimmer of hope emerges from an unexpected source.
