Kunado Chronicles

Just awoken from an unreliable cold-sleep hibernation, he finds himself missing his memory, but although uncertain who he is, he possesses the knowledge of ancient civilizations. “Please—can you promise me to join with us, and work to bring hope and happiness into this world?” In exchange for food, clothing, and shelter, he agrees to bring culture to the kingdom of Kanto, which might as well be a different world from our own. Only after the fight for the fate of humanity does his story even begin. This is a story of a strange new life, of coffee shops and the paper-money economy, about the qualities and struggles of a leader, and it's about a girl who was nobody, finding her feet and embracing a dream. This nation of scrappy survivors has built its whole culture around the struggle for continued existence—and although that struggle is over now, the common citizens still cover their faces with fox masks and live as “nobodies” in the full sense of the word. “What do you mean by ‘hope’ and ‘happiness?’” “We don't know anything other than fighting.” —One day a young man from a thousand years in the past is dug up, to become the protagonist of our tale. You wake up from cold sleep upside-down in a tree. Watch out—IT'S THE FUTURE. In a world destroyed by ineffable monsters with no hearts, but an iron will; in a society warped and shaped by the constant threat of ruin; the dragon is already dead: Help what's left of humanity learn how to live in this post-apocalyptic fantasy visual novel. FEATURES 20+ hours of story Two branching routes Japanese voice acting Characters shaped by their world STORY 2034 A.D.— That was the year when the metallic monsters known as Tekki appeared and wiped most of humanity out in their wake, and the accompanying failure of all metal-based equipment likewise accelerated the loss of technology and civilization. And it's about the life and the death of a hero. But more than anything, this is a confession. CHARACTERS Haruhime “If you ask me to choose between talking and eating, I'm always going to choose eating.” As the bearer of the title of Ichi-no-Kami, she is the leader of the Eight Swords who hold authority in Kanto. A charming and elegant princess, she possesses a curiosity rare in her kingdom—and naturally, being a rare curious soul amidst such a rough folk, she finds herself fighting a lot of uphill battles. She is loved by her people as a fair and just ruler; although trusted with power, she has never sought it. Haruhime is internally a somewhat more timid and lonely individual than she lets on to the rest of the world, and doesn't always have the patience for less interesting tasks. As she's constantly getting hungry, she keeps snacks stashed up her sleeves for consumption whenever she needs them. Shin “Cool it, Kanto!” The protagonist of Kunado Chronicles—a young man who's spent a thousand years in cold sleep. He possesses the ancient wisdom and customs of our own modern age, but due to technical issues with his hibernation, he has no personal memories of his own. What he lacks in particular skills or a strong personality, he makes up for with innate adaptability and a talent for rational thought. He also has a strong sense of hearing. Shin attempts to convey his cultural and technological understanding to the kingdom of Kanto, but as its people are rougher and less refined than he's used to, he finds himself fighting an uphill battle. Akane “Get ready to collapse when you see how strong we really are!” One half of the Ni-no-Kami of the Eight Swords, also known as Fuujin of the Gales. Despite being the youngest of the Swords, she and her twin sister Aoi are together the strongest fighting force in Kanto. Correspondingly confident Soon, the only places where humanity could survive were in the small gaps between Tekki activity. Since then, a thousand years have passed, and a single hero has at last struck a decisive blow against the heart of the Tekki menace. “The battle for the fate of humanity ended 100 days ago.” “The only things left for the story that lies ahead are ‘hope’ and ‘happiness.’” The stage is set in a country known as Kanto, home to some eight hundred empowered individuals and reminiscent in some ways of long-lost Japan.
