With the words, "We need your help with the current situation. Your power as Anima Mundi!", an area with a radius of 500 meters including Akihabara rises several tens of centimeters into the air. At the center of it all is Akihabara Third Junior High School. "The prince is waiting! He said he'd wait for him even if it took hundreds of years..."
