Story and CharactersThe story of "TSR" revolves around the exploits of Sousuke Sagara, a mercenary sent by the mysterious military organization "Mithril" to protect Chidori Kaname, a girl with special abilities. Sousuke's school life is full of "war-dazed" behavior, and he is constantly plagued by Kaname's constant tirades. However, as terrorists close in on Kaname, Sousuke must fight using his Arm Slave. The series particularly focuses on Sousuke's suffering and growth, delving deeply into his humanity. The character settings are also very appealing. The episode in which Sousuke's hair grows long and becomes unkempt makes him seem more human, making the viewer feel closer to him.
