## Plot

Luke Laurie Smith leads a lecture at the Royal Dragon Order HQ in Hokkaido, Zenin. With his loyal mentor elaborating any future threats to land of the Royal Dragons, blademaster Jason Bardis, the mysterious Shadow Fox learns of Zenin's unwanted creatures, the kind that can tower over buildings and concrete walls. Dante and the Infernolab team are there as well, the second son of Yuji and Kana familiarizing the threat to his faviourite manga and anime series, *Attack on Titan*.

Feeling disturbed by Dante's objection with the said anime / manga series, Luke waves it off and continues to discuss about defense strategies against this so called Titan Ragnavatar. Foreign to Zeninian grounds, Luke introduces them with a technological weapon that can aid them in combat against the Ragnavatar Titans. Dante rolls his eyes, immediately knowing the aerial tool and drawing in comparisons and similarities to Katsura's Overhaul Gear.

Nekoferno, awake from her small nap, suddenly alerts the team with small ground vibrations she felt and sensed before. Luke notices Team Infernolab leaving rather quickly as Dante sheepishly waves farewell. Resuming, Laurie is dumbstruck at the sight of his apprentice, in place was a lonely chair.

The team arrive in post district Gravenmarcher, where they find small purple abnormal titans causing wreck havoc across a village. An yelping RDO soldier is held up by one of them and is chewed alive. The team absorbs the horror but get on with it anyway. The Infernolab and the Royal Dragon Order attempt to attack, only for a certain blademaster harnessing the vertical maneuvering gear and armed with the ODM blades streaks across the sky, slaying them one by one. Dante agapes at Jason Bardis, clad in a Survey Corps uniform and signature green cape. The Shadow Fox ignores Ryuzaki's shrill of excitement before vanishing into the air.

Both teams conduct research at the Wakefield Sanctorum on the so called Ragnavatar Titans. Renoa and the others concentrate while Dante rambles about Bardis' admiration to the Attack on Titan series. Gleaming at the row of his manga collection, Dante begins to dream of joining the Royal Dragon Order, clad in the Survey Corps uniform. With Galen snapping him out of it, Itsuki helpfully informs them with the Ragnavatar Titan mutation perhaps first conducted by Kagestura, famed bounty hunter to kitsune dragon Mizuno. Using the negative Mano Kami energy to draw in the organic spicemens of a normal Ragnavatar, Bardis theorizes that it may have caused a birth of abnormal Ragnavatar Titans, creatures large enough to hunger and feast on humans alike. Ryuzaki exclaims in joy as Wolfberg feels distraught.

Itsuki warns the team of a spell that can freeze the titans under his will as long no one in proximity disturbs his meditation. The team nod and head forth for Shirakawa, where taller Ragnavatar Titans have invaded.

Upon thier arrival, locals yell in fear and scramble around while RGO Flame Troopers try thier best to crisp the Titans into flames. One of them gets picked up by one and gets pulled in half by the others in a small fight. Before they could get to the titans, two famed RDO figures glide past the run down tents. Luke Laurie Smith and Jason Bardis. Clad in their new Survey Corps uniform and vertical gear, they easily aerial dash toward the napes of the Titans' necks and slash through them with a finishing X cut with both of their blades. An RDO member stoops down to collect the remaining residue for further research while the locals around Shirakawa clean up the bloody site.

Jason and Dante are perched on top of Bardis' workshop trailer among the stars alone, drinking tea while staring out into the vast cityscape of Shirakawa. Ryuzaki learns more of Bardis' past, and how he moved on without his mother, Freya Bardis. This brings Ryuzaki to have his own emotional feelings for his mother, Kana Ryuzaki and how he had to deal with her death at a young age. After a brief silence, the two discuss about the Ragnavatar Titans and how Jason familirazed himself with the AoT series. Bardis remarks about one of the posters in Ryuzaki's room, requesting Laurie to adapt the RGO uniform based off of the Survey Corps. A twinkle shines in the sky the same way it does in Dante's eye.

Late night practice with the ODM gear brings Dante to trial and errors. After a brief tutorial by the Shadow Fox himself, Dante gets the hang of it and begins to zig zag across the buildings while slashing through wooden fences.

A week later, Nekoferno warns the team of the Rumbling. The arrival of the Berserker Titan in Yakuwara Seoul. Both teams, clad in the Survey Corps uniform, prepare thier ODM gear. Dante sends out The Disk O' Inferno to spy on thier enemy: a colossal, purple, winged, humanoid titan.

As soon as the heavyweight bot reaches over to the hooves of the Beserker Titan, it unfortunately gets crushed and the live feed on its radio control monitor cuts off. With both the RDO and the Infernolab scattered on top of buildings around the Titan, Ryuzaki signals as they deploy into battle. Fafnir, fixed after its first battle against the smaller titans, roars majestically and uses Inferno launch. Nekoferno, in cat mode, screams across the sky before her panther mode claws at the Titan's arm. Her Mugen bladetail slashes through the surface, damaging part of the beast. Deploying the hi tech speakers, she proceeds to play KMFDM's Beast. The Titan staggers forward, trying to regain balance.

However, Nekoferno loses balance and falls off, only to be saved by Kiranaga.

Meanwhile, Itsuki hovers over the Yakuwara tower, suspended in mid air during meditation mode. His spell indeed freezes the ragnavatar titans, making it easier for the teams to take them down.

Jason and Luke rise into the air, blades in hand. They clambour up the Titan's arm, slashing through. Dante is unlucky as the third hand protrudes out of the Titan's chest grabs him and lures him in. Bardis and Laurie immediately swoop down to save him. The Titan roars in agony as the third hand is sliced in half and tears through the head before Ryuzaki bursts through the back of its neck, blades outstretched and Survey Corps cape fluttering against the wind. The Colossal Ragnavatar Titan collapses against the buildings before hitting the ground.

Both groups celebrate in joy, Sake and tea passed around.

A student from *Academy Infernolab* walks quietly along Yakuwara's cityscapes. Noticing, the damaged ODM gear and its blades, Katsura grows triggered.
