Description
Yuji Tamiya is a soldier for the Committee of the Universal Resolution of Ecocatastrophe (CURE). Equipped with nanomachines, he utilizes Nano Osmolar Armor (NOA) to fight victims of the M34 virus. Combat experiences fuel significant frustration with CURE leadership when he learns they withhold UNIT-i, a specialized weapon manifesting as a girl named Ai, despite mounting NOA casualties.
Exposed to the virus during a mission, he undergoes quarantine but is released after apparent recovery. Subsequent blood tests reveal the evolved virus now attacks his nanomachines, prompting CURE to order his arrest. He escapes custody, taking Ai hostage. His condition deteriorates during their flight until Ai intervenes, using her powers to heal him. This act triggers a pivotal shift in their relationship.
His return to the NOA facility coincides with the virus transforming infected soldiers. He is forced to combat both his former comrades and CURE security forces. Sensing his peril, Ai requests to be brought to the facility. Her crystallizing emotional connection to him enables a projection of her feelings, eliminating the virus within the facility.
During a subsequent large-scale outbreak where the virus evolves to mimic nanomachine capabilities, he provides tactical support to delay advancing creatures. This allows Ai to unleash a final, exhaustive projection of her power, purging the infected zone. An epilogue confirms his discharge from CURE alongside Ai, depicting both spending time together afterward.
Personality-wise, he displays impulsiveness, a quick temper, and moodiness, traits masking underlying loneliness and a fear of dying in combat. His initial interactions with Ai stem from her sensing his isolation, resonating with her own inexperience with human connection. Their evolving bond becomes central to resolving the viral threat.
