When a portal to another realm suddenly materializes on Earth, Mikado City finds itself overrun by enigmatic entities known as "Neighbors," malevolent beings impervious to conventional weaponry. In response to this invasion, the Border Defense Agency is established to counter the Neighbor threat using specialized armaments called "Triggers." Despite the passage of several years since the portal's emergence, Neighbors remain a persistent danger, prompting Border members to remain vigilant in safeguarding the planet.
In this tense environment, trainees like Osamu Mikumo are forbidden from deploying their Triggers outside of headquarters. However, when a new student, shrouded in mystery, is ensnared by bullies and led into a restricted zone, they come under attack by Neighbors. Left with no alternative, Osamu is compelled to take action in defense of what he believes is right. To his astonishment, the transfer student Yuuma Kuga effortlessly dispatches the aliens, unveiling his true identity as a humanoid Neighbor in disguise.
