Synopsis[]

Set in 2025, a roboticist named Yuki Fudo joins a project involving a large mural depicting humanity's true past as well as the ancient but advanced technology found in Antarctica uncovered by global warming known to the company as the Demon Armor. He initially took the job because his company Robot Dream is currently on the verge of bankruptcy. On the job, he meets Tsubasa Shiranui a pilot affiliated with Mendel Inc. and its parent company Le Phare Inc.

He also meets a major shareholder of Le Phare, Ryo Ouji Asuka, a person Yuki befriended many years ago as a child. Through a series of events, the Demon Armor is bonded and often dominated over certain individuals. This includes Tsubasa being bonded to Sirene and a pair bonded to the Valva armor. Yuki in turn is bonded to the armor of Amon, gradually learning to compromise with the ancient demon in order to stop the threats set from the demon armor.

Meanwhile back in Japan, Yuki's wife Miki investigates the mysterious robot suicide bombing supposedly caused by terrorists. However the incident was actually caused by an engineer who fused with robotic parts made from the Demon Armor. The interconnected events continue to expand starting an arms race for the Demon Armors.
