Character Introduction

【 Protagonist 】

A girl who showed extraordinary programming talent from a young age. After a family tragedy, she grew reclusive, shutting herself off from the world and connecting only through a headset and the internet. When her “senpai” disappears, she receives mysterious clues from an unknown person and decides to investigate urban anomalies to find her. She cannot enter the Meta Space and must rely on her partners to explore.

【 Nyx 】

Called “Senpai” by the protagonist, but not actually from the same school. Beautiful, kind, and cheerful, embodying all traits of popularity. One day she mysteriously disappears, and neither the protagonist nor her friend Knox know her whereabouts.

【 Nox 】

Nyx’s friend with an androgynous appearance. Unlike the ever-cheerful Nyx, Knox is more grounded and serious. Cares about the protagonist and actively joins the investigation.

【 Mot noir mémo 】

Claims to be an engineer investigating urban legends to escape his own plight. A little neurotic, polite most of the time, but overly talkative on topics of interest, showing some otaku traits.

【 Amoraith 】

Claims to be connected to a TV station. Speaks with an old-fashioned politeness. Behaves like a knight of justice, protecting the weak, upholding principles, and believing that protecting children is a natural duty.

【 Morbos 】

A famous urban legend video creator. Speaks very fast, often about incomprehensible topics. Physically weak and occasionally hospitalized, but extremely active in his inner world.

【 Musashi 】

A timid and introverted girl, still a student and Nyx’s actual junior at school. Although she never had direct interaction with Nyx, she admires her greatly and actively helps the protagonist in the search.
