Alice Gear Aegis Synopsis
When mysterious mechanical life forms called Weiss arrive into Earth’s atmosphere, humans are forced to build a spaceship using lunar crust and set off into space to avoid extinction. After a long struggle, humanity discovers “higher dimensional energy” which can pierce Weiss’ shields and uses it to create Alice Gear, a special weapon to fight the enemy. But, only young women are able to draw this energy and use it.
ACN Edit
Three centuries later, a special anti-Weiss organization called AEGIS oversees to whole Alice Gear project. Women who are able to use it are called “actresses” and use the special powers to fight the Weiss population, which has now drastically decreased.
