Synopsis:
In the year 2242, humanity struggles for survival in scattered bubble-like cities amidst devastated lands, avoiding toxic rain and hostile lifeforms known as Enders. The source of their survival lies in AO crystals, and those brave enough to collect them are called drifters. Piloting versatile bipedal tanks, these drifters are supported by combat androids called magus.
Prospective drifter Kanata, alongside his gifted friend Tokio, stumbles upon Noir, a seemingly intact magus in stasis during their exploration of remote ruins. However, Noir wakes up with no memories, posing a challenge for Kanata’s work. Amid an attack by Enders, Kanata discovers Noir’s exceptional combat abilities, leading them on a journey to unravel Noir’s past and locate Histoire—the mythical city holding the secrets Kanata dreams of.
While SYNDUALITY Noir may not be widely known, its unique storyline and blend of action and mystery make it a hidden gem for those seeking something off the beaten path in the anime world. Stay tuned for the new season, promising fresh revelations and captivating adventures!
