There are those who want to maintain the status quo, and there are those who want to destroy it.
In the not too distant future, throughout the world, people are at odds with each other, fighting and fatigued…
As war intensifies, a civilian plane was accidentally shot down.
One after another, the dead were confirmed, but there was a sole survivor, a girl who was unscathed.
Before long, she grew up into a beautiful woman but as time went by, her mysterious powers awakened.
Initially, she was taken to a private research institute but, she caught the attention of the government who wanted to unlock her powers for military purposes.
The power to bend the laws of the universe, people called it Tactical Sorcery.
Her remarkable results in battle led the government to seek out more power and expanding to cruel human experimentation.
And, due to a certain incident, her magical powers went berserk causing what is called an Astral Impact.
A powerful shockwave of magic spread throughout and a number of girls were bestowed with Tactical Sorcery.
Soon after, silhouettes of girls with magical powers could be seen across the front lines.
Raising soldiers’ morale, these fighting beauties were called Vanguard Princesses.
A year later, as the war comes to a close, she was thought to have gone missing but she now has been reincarnated as the arbiter of justice in order to destroy humanity.
As if guided, the Vanguard Princesses head towards the battlefield.
