Story[]

Ten years ago in Shibuya, Tokyo, there was a ferocious battle between two rival organizations. One organization wanted to create "fluctuations" (also translated as "tremors") to open a portal between the Earth and other worlds, and the other wanted to stop this "project" as it could cause chaos to the world. The fluctuations where stopped by the "Shinra", a secret governamental organization that exist since ancient times and combat otherworldly disturbances like Kamaitachis and Tengus. Shibuya was isolated after the battle.

In the year 20XX, fluctuations are happening again in Shibuya like 10 years ago. The Shinra agents Reiji Arisu and Xiaomu go to the local to investigate. Suddenly, characters (both good and evil) and locations from several worlds and times begin appearing in other worlds.
