NEO-TOKYO CITY STRUCTURE
[ KEYWORD: 三層構造 ]
Neo Tokyo is clearly divided into three layers.
・Central Layer: Amatsu Core District, Hanaboshi Bay District. The most stringent surveillance, where the wealthy reside.
・Intermediate Layer: Downtown Labor District, Bay Area Heavy Industry District. The living area for ordinary citizens, heavily influenced by body debt.
・Outer Layer: Haimu Island District, Akihabara Dark District. An outlaw zone rampant with illegal modifications and underground medical practices.
▶ Haimu Island District (Outer Layer)
An artificial island and abandoned landfill. An unfinished redevelopment area. A concentration of dangerous missions such as the transportation of illegal body parts and confidential data. Representative: Yume Island Mega Mall ruins, Zero Processing Plant.

Concentration of factory for body parts and heavy industry plants. Workers with heavy labor body modifications work here, with frequent accidents due to body debt. Representative: Ninth Port Container Yard, Amatsu Second Body Parts Factory.

CYBERNETICS

_ BODY MODIFICATION

[ ENHANCEMENT_BLUE ]
An existence that surpasses living humans. Achieves overwhelming high output through artificial muscle fibers, complete liberation from fatigue, and elimination of delay in thought and action through neural connections. An evolution into a cold and perfect higher existence.
[ DEPENDENCY_RED ]
⚠ Deadly cost. Regular maintenance and energy supply are essential. Ignoring internal mechanism wear and neural synchronization deviation can lead to catastrophic malfunctions that consume one’s self. Subjugation to parts.
_ DATA_COMPILED _

Core-Ware // CORE-WARE SYSTEM

Central expansion equipment that directly connects to the brain, artificial nerves, and body OS of body modification users, altering the abilities of the user itself. Since it directly interferes with combat methods, perception, judgment speed, and physical output, it is among the most dangerous of body modifications.

Kurokagi / 黒鍵

Cyber intrusion type - Core ware that enables hacking.

Raiku / 雷駆

Neural acceleration type - Core ware that accelerates body and perception.

Onigara / 鬼殻

Physical enhancement type - Core ware that enhances muscle strength and durability.

⚠ WARNING // MULTIPLE IMPLEMENTATION RISK

Multiple core wares compete for processing areas of artificial nerves, leading the brain to receive simultaneous different bodily sensations. As a result, the recognition of bodily boundary collapses, and the incidence of EDS skyrockets.

FATAL_ERROR NEURAL_COLLAPSE_DETECTED

WARNING: CORRUPTED_DATA_INCLUDED // ACCESS_RESTRICTED

▶ EDS

THREAT_LEVEL: OMEGA

The largest mental and neural disorder in a society of body modifications. The brain, having replaced body sensations with artificial nerve signals, loses sight of its own bodily boundaries.

[ Progress Symptoms ]
・Early: Tactile noise, delayed reactions
・Mid-stage: Emotional numbness, mirror image discomfort
・Late-stage: Memory loss, violent impulses, body modification rampage
・Terminal: Ego collapse

※ Amatsu Heavy Industries conceals the incidence rate and sends terminal patients to processing facilities under the pretext of "protective transport".

GHOST

▶ Ghost (END_STAGE_ENTITY)

STATUS: NON_HUMAN / TERMINATION_RECOMMENDED

A colloquial term for terminally ill body modification users with EDS.
The continuity of ego and emotion is completely lost, endlessly repeating only broken programs of previous habitual actions and fragments of memory.

[ CORPORATE_DIRECTIVE ]
Corporations do not treat them as patients. They are classified as "dangerous entities", and immediate dismantling is recommended upon discovery.
