Overview

Invertia (meteor storm)… an unprecedented disaster that struck the world during the 20th century. Because of this disaster, numerous cities around the world were destroyed. However, within the meteor, an unknown element called mana (the all-encompassing element), was discovered, which allowed human technology to make rapid strides. This also gave rise to a new species of human born with unique skills – the Star Pulse Generation (Genestella). The setting for the world’s greatest comprehensive battle spectacle, the Festas (Star Warrior Festivals), is an academy city above the water surrounded by six academies called Rikka also commonly known as Asterisk. Having transferred into Seidoukan Academy in order to fulfill his own wish, scholarship student Ayato Amagiri swears he too will fight in this city. Burning souls race… The curtain rises on this school battle spectacle! (Source: Crunchyroll)

旧世紀、無数の隕石が降り注ぐ未曾有の大災害「落星雨（インベルティア）」によって世界が一変した。既存の国家は衰退し、一方で無数の企業が融合して形成された統合企業財体が台頭していく。また落星雨は万応素（マナ）が結晶化したマナダイトという鉱石と、生まれながらに驚異的な身体能力を持つ新人類《星脈世代（ジェネステラ）》の誕生という、新たな可能性ももたらした。優勝者は好きな望みを叶えてもらえるというバトルエンターテインメント《星武祭（フェスタ）》、そこでの優勝を目指して《星脈世代》の少年少女たちは水上学園都市「六花」（通称：アスタリスク）で切磋琢磨していた。
