Synopsis
As World War II begins, intelligence on other nations' social and economic conditions becomes vital. In response, Japan creates a secret espionage unit called the "D Agency." Led by Lieutenant Colonel Yuuki, eight highly trained agents are tasked with infiltrating and monitoring key global powers, transmitting crucial wartime intelligence back to Japan. These operatives have undergone rigorous training to endure extreme conditions and possess expertise in fields like communications and linguistics. Yet their most powerful skill is the ability to manipulate others to extract the essential information needed to strengthen Japan's strategic advantage.
