Description
Arma, alternately called Alma, is a sentient mechanical arm—classified as a Mecha-Ude—from another dimension. Trapped within a crystalline cube for a century, he awakens upon discovery by Hikaru, a middle school student. A botched fusion attempt leaves him permanently attached to the boy’s hoodie instead of merging with his body, granting Arma uncommon autonomy among Mecha-Ude, enabling independent action from his host.
His sleek white exoskeleton, accented by light-gray panels, features a single glowing orange eye with a white pupil. Arma wields immense physical strength, capable of hurling Hikaru into acrobatic maneuvers or dragging him effortlessly. He transforms into an alarm clock to rouse his reluctant partner and shifts into a combat form that temporarily enhances Hikaru’s reflexes and power, though it rapidly depletes their shared energy. In this state, they execute techniques like rocket-propelled punches and a synchronized finisher where Hikaru amplifies Arma’s strike by hitting his fist from behind.
Arma channels a hero persona ripped from manga pages—bold, brash, and prone to reckless gambits. His unwavering moral code clashes with Hikaru’s caution, forging an unlikely partnership that matures into mutual dependence. Beyond battlefield bravado, Arma reveals unexpected attentiveness, ensuring Hikaru meets school deadlines and navigates daily challenges.
Haunted by amnesia spanning centuries, Arma’s fragmented past hides former partnerships and sibling rivalries. Memories eventually surface of Yakumo—later revealed as Aljis, leader of ARMS—and Fist, his logical, reserved brother partnered with Aljis. The Kagami Group, a megacorporation, pursues Arma as the legendary "Trigger Arm," believing his link to arbitrium energy could reshape realities.
Teaming with resistance fighter Aki, they confront Kagami’s forces and interdimensional gates threatening both worlds. As Arma rediscovers emotional depth through human connections, he chooses to return to his dying dimension to aid its restoration, with Hikaru and allies following through shimmering gateways, their futures entwined yet open-ended.
Designed with an expressive eye and fluid movements inspired by organic-mechanical hybrids like *Parasyte*’s Migi, Arma comically mirrors Hikaru’s expressions despite lacking human features, creating mismatches between mechanical responses and human gestures.
