Anime Summary
Invertia was a meteor storm that caused an unprecedented disaster during the 20th century. Because of this disaster, numerous cities around the world were destroyed. However, within the meteor, an unknown element called mana was discovered. It allowed human technology to make rapid strides giving rise to a new species of super-powered humans, the Star Pulse Generation (Genestella). The Festas (Star Warrior Festivals) host battles between Genestella at a city of six academies called “Rikka,” also commonly known as “Asterisk.” Scholarship student Ayato Amagiri transferred into Seidōkan Academy in order to fulfill his own wish, swearing he too will fight in this city.

Anime Song
Romaji Version
I'm waiting for the rain
I'm bracing for the thunder
A twig that wouldn't sway
In the wind
Awaken from a dream
Arising from a slumber
I'm far away from home
On my own
Hear my yearning
See the crimson flame
Like a ruby
It's the hope
In my eye
If you go away
And I don't see you anymore
I still wouldn't sway
But I'd be
Missing you
Now don't be afraid
You the flower couldn't sting
You can hide in my shade
Or maybe I...
Could I be safe
In yours?
A moment left to bloom
I wither by the morning
Can we be staying here
For a while
Hear my yearning
See my raging light
It's my token that we won't
Say goodbye
If you go away
And I don't see you anymore
I still wouldn't sway
But I'd be
Missing you
Now don't be afraid
You the flower couldn't sting
You can hide in my shade
Or maybe I...
Would go away
And I don't see you anymore
I still wouldn't sway
But I'd be
Missing you
Now don't be afraid
We are lasting yet awhile
I will give you a day
Or maybe I...
Could I have one
Of yours?
