In a futuristic Tokyo, unique human beings who have awakened distinct powers are being hunted by a secret organization named Custos.

## Cast
### Attractors
#### Quon (クオン, Kuon)

    Voiced by: Hiroshi Kamiya (Japanese); Corey Hartzog (English)
    The protagonist, Quon has actually lived for over a millennium. Born in a village that was home to the first Attractors, Quon's powers manifest when he witnesses his family and village being slaughtered and, in a rage, avenged them. However, in his fury, Quon realized he had also slaughtered innocent people as well. He now aims to pave the way for a future of peace and acceptance. Unlike other Attractors seen, he has exhibited more than one power, including transforming into a fighting form designated by Custos as Insania. In that state, Quon has exceptional speed and strength, manipulations of water, metal (or mechanical objects) and, possibly nature itself, and self-regeneration. His younger brother Towa sealed himself away into the crystal known as the Tokitsu Namida and gave Quon immortality. Quon never knew this until in chapter 5, when he regained consciousness and found himself in the room Kannazuki was hiding. During the events of Chapter 6, Towa unsealed Quon's true form and powers so he could defeat Kamishiro, at the cost of Towa's life. Afterwards, Quon seems to have lost his immortality. His full name is Quon Miduchi (三鎚久遠).

    A 21-year-old Attractor with fire manipulative powers who was originally with the Custos as the cyborg soldier designated Epsilon. He is generally a pure and naive person, yet the events that led him to becoming a member of the WTOC made him slightly bitter. Prior to joining Custos, Shun was a high school student with a younger sister who was also a Larva like he was. When she entered a Larvae Burst stage, Shun's own Attractor powers activated and he unknowingly incinerated her as well as their parents. Unable to bear the trauma, before enlisting in the WTOC program Shun placed himself under the delusion that his sister was murdered by the creature that is her Attractor form and saw all Attractors as monsters that deserve to die. However, during the events where he is in a world based on his dreams with Tei, who resembles his sister, Shun regains his memories of how she truly died. As a result, he underwent a Larvae Burst with his cyborg parts enhancing his Attractor abilities as he gains full control of himself without a power limiter. He defected from Custos and joined the Attractors, realizing their true intentions while managing to win their trust after saving Tei and Kiri from the Custos.

In Chapter 6, he absorbed a portion of Towa's powers and tried to turn all the humans in the facility into Larvae.
