The reason: he is supposedly a heartless outlaw who destroys anyone who stands in his way and levels entire cities for amusement, earning him the nickname "The Humanoid Typhoon." Wherever he goes, death and ruin follow, and rumor says that even making eye contact with him means certain doom—or so the stories claim. In truth, Vash is an enormous softie who insists he has never killed anyone and does everything he can to avoid violence. With his absurd doughnut obsession and clownish demeanor in tow, Vash travels across the desert planet Gunsmoke, constantly tailed by two insurance agents, Meryl Stryfe and Milly Thompson, who try to keep his collateral damage under control. Before long, their chaotic adventures turn into life-or-death struggles when a group of legendary assassins is called in to bring suffering upon the trio. Vash's painful past comes to light, and his beliefs and moral code are pushed to their absolute limits.

In 2026, four years after the infamous Sword Art Online incident, a new technology called the Augma emerges, employing an Augmented Reality system.

Natsume is one of those who would rather be on the front lines; undeterred by her prosthetic right arm, she aims to join the small number of Tanker soldiers who fight alongside the Gears. However, despite the other children at the orphanage each receiving their work assignments, Natsume’s enlistment in the Power remains unapproved. In the meantime, she starts a job as a cleaner on an armor repair team led by the stern and indifferent Kaburagi, who seems to be more than he appears. Though initially cold to his idealistic subordinate, he soon recognizes in her the potential to disrupt the world’s established order. As her new mentor, Kaburagi prepares Natsume for the special and unique role of a game-changing bug in the system.
