Synopsis
The arrival of a mysterious black meteorite sparked a D2 invasion, plunging the USA into chaos. Since these creatures loathe music, all performances were banned to ensure public safety, a restriction lasting until 2047. Humanity's sole defense rests with Musicarts, youthful avatars of classical pieces, and their partners, the Conductors. Takt Asahina, a quiet piano prodigy, becomes a Conductor after surviving a D2 assault and forging a bond with Destiny, a Musicart. This same tragedy claimed the life of Cosette, the younger sister of Anna Schneider. To deepen the connection between Takt and Destiny, the three set out on a dangerous trek to the Symphonica Headquarters in New York City. Though terrified of drawing the attention of the very monsters they combat, Takt yearns to play music once more, while Destiny's rigid commitment to her duties frequently causes friction. Traversing D2-ridden lands and facing countless hurdles, they struggle to reach their goal unharmed.
