Academy Battle City Asterisk

In the 21st century, Earth is in a rapidly declining economic state and megacorporations known as the Integrated Enterprise Foundations (統合企業財体 Tōgō Kigyō Zaitai), rose to power after the impact event Invertia (落星雨インヴェルティア Inverutia)[Note 1] destroyed most of the planet's cities and resulted in humans gaining superpowers to become the Genestella (星脈世代ジェネステラ Jenesutera).[Note 2] The city of Rikka (六花), also called Asterisk, has six academies where the Genestella participate in tournaments called Festas (星武祭フェスタ Fesuta).[Note 3] Battle performances at Seidoukan Academy (星導館学園 Seidōkan Gakuen), the city's fifth top-ranking academy, are falling significantly and student council president, Claudia Enfield, is determined to find a solution. Kirin Toudou is the academy's top fighter, but Claudia, as well as Lieseltanian princess, Julis-Alexia von Riessfeld, are close behind.
