Gate

Several months after the infamous Ginza Incident, tensions between the Empire and the JSDF continue to rise in the vast and enigmatic "Special Region," where peace negotiations remain fraught with difficulty. Reports about the technological weaknesses of the magical realm’s ancient civilizations have only fueled the growing greed and curiosity of global powers. Meanwhile, Lieutenant Youji Itami and his entourage of devoted female followers find themselves entangled in the intricate political schemes swirling through the Empire’s court. Princess Piña Co Lada does her best to persuade her father that the JSDF has no plans to conquer their kingdom, but her efforts meet with little success. Caught between opposing forces on both sides of the Gate, Itami realizes he may need to take even more extreme steps to complete his mission.
