Lead
An adult woman in her mid-20s with a gentle, oval face, short brown hair with side-swept bangs, and expressive dark eyes. Wears a modest, practical blouse and skirt in neutral tones, paired with a long beige coat. Her posture is thoughtful and reserved, carrying the weight of memory.
Empathetic, curious, cautious but determined. Central to the group; forms close bonds with Fumie, Isako, and Haraken.
Ally
An adult woman in her mid-20s with a round face, lively dark eyes, and chin-length black hair in a bob. Her style is casual and sporty: a zip-up hoodie, jeans, and sneakers, often with a digital device clipped to her belt. Her stance is energetic and confident.
Outgoing, resourceful, quick-witted; the group's tech ace. Best friend and foil to Yasako; supports the team with technical know-how.
Heart
An adult man in his mid-20s with a slim build, soft features, and short, slightly tousled black hair. Wears a button-up shirt under a navy cardigan and slacks, glasses perched on his nose. His expression is thoughtful, tinged with quiet sadness.
Sensitive, introspective, loyal; haunted by personal loss. Connects Yasako to deeper emotional stakes; close to the group.
Rival
An adult woman in her mid-20s with a sharp, angular face, long black hair often tied back, and piercing dark eyes. Favors a sleek, dark jacket and fitted pants, with a silver AR interface on her wrist. Her bearing is poised and slightly aloof.
Driven, enigmatic, fiercely independent; hides vulnerability. Rival and mirror to Yasako; her goals often clash with the group.
Witness
An adult man in his late 20s with a broad, expressive face, short spiky brown hair, and a sturdy build. Wears a work vest over a plaid shirt and cargo pants, always with a toolkit or AR scanner at hand. His demeanor is boisterous but observant.
Blunt, practical, surprisingly insightful; the group's fixer and guide. Interprets the city’s hidden layers for the others.
2007 anime: hand-drawn backgrounds, soft digital paint, muted urban palettes, and subtle film grain overlay.
Naturalistic, overcast daylight, warm interior glows, digital AR highlights. Slightly soft, visible linework, gentle digital grain.
