Description
Naoto Kirihara, eldest of the Kirihara siblings, wields potent psychokinetic abilities to manipulate objects and environments through mental force—a power demanding physical sacrifice, draining him with prolonged exertion. His telepathic bond with younger brother Naoya anchors his identity, enabling silent communication and driving his protective instincts against threats targeting Naoya’s trauma from clairvoyant visions.

Society’s fear of psychics condemned both brothers to fifteen years of confinement under researcher Kyojiro Mikuriya, their hopes for freedom tied to promised societal acceptance. Instead, they awaken in 2041’s dystopian Tokyo, where oppressive censorship enforces denial of supernatural existence and criminalizes psychic phenomena. This dissonance between expectation and reality fuels their quest for meaning.

Self-assured yet volatile, Naoto’s temper ignites under provocation, his psychokinesis erupting destructively in combat—a manifestation of his fear toward his power’s unchecked potential. He directs these abilities to disrupt tragedies foreseen by Naoya, striving to rewrite fates and spare others suffering.

Their fractured timeline unravels through revelations of parental betrayal: drugged in 2014, the brothers’ institutionalization precedes a temporal paradox born from World War III’s aftermath. This anomaly binds their destiny to the Kuroki siblings—psychic agents of the authoritarian SWE—exposing a stable time loop where their past actions shape the Kurokis’ present. Conflict with these counterparts forces mutual reckoning with intertwined legacies.

External forces compound Naoto’s burdens. Mikuriya and prophet Akiko Okuhara manipulate events to fulfill a prophecy of humanity’s dimensional transcendence, testing his resolve through SWE clashes, resistance alliances, and moral dilemmas over power usage in a hostile world. He ultimately embraces his role as a guide, bridging the Kurokis’ fractured history to forge a balanced future, though his own path beyond this remains undefined.

Practicality defines his appearance: neck-length black hair, dark eyes, and utilitarian grey attire beneath a black trench coat, a visual anchor within the narrative’s cyberpunk backdrop, emphasizing his role as a protector navigating chaos.
