Fafner: Dead Aggressor

蒼穹のファフナー Dead Aggressor

Soukyuu no Fafner: Dead Aggressor

The residents of Tatsumiya Island once lived peaceful, everyday lives, but the arrival of the Festum—a radiant golden enemy—changed everything, turning their island into a heavily armed military fortress. Toh Ubukata, the series' director and screenwriter, brings this beloved anime to life in a novel adaptation. This work marks a fresh chapter in the Fafner saga, granting readers access to the inner thoughts of characters such as Soshi, Maya, Shoko, and others—details that never appeared in the anime. Additionally, the book vividly depicts intense clashes between the Fafners and the Festum through Ubukata's dynamic prose.
