Synopsis
The inviolable realm of Hell Gate suddenly appeared in Tokyo ten years ago. The real starry sky disappeared and was replaced by fake stars. Superpowered people called "Contractors" began to appear everywhere. These ordinary human beings have lost their dreams and impulses, and have to pay the price for their abilities. As the mystery of the Gate unfolds, the spy agencies of various countries and the contracted persons are quietly fighting to the death in Tokyo. The story revolves around the fate of the man known as "Black", Messier's code name "BK-201", and the people around him.

In fact, he is not a real Contractor, but inherited his powers from his sister, Hakuba, so he doesn't have to pay for them. Her true power is to transform matter at the quantum level, and she can increase her power with the help of meteor fragments, making the "Gate" space an inviolable field. He was known as the "Black Death" before he became a Contractor, and later as the "Legendary Cursed Contractor", but he doesn't really want to kill anyone.

Originally an apprentice of a famous pianist, she became a Doll of the organization after losing her father and mother for unknown reasons, and because of her special body type, she has very little emotion. As the story progresses, she gradually reveals her feelings and thoughts under the influence of Kuro and the others. He supports Kuro until the end of the story, calling out from the bottom of his heart to bring Kuro back to reality from the backwaters of time. Afterwards, he breaks away from the organization with Kuro and begins a life on the run. Excellent memory. Has a sense of absolute sound, so he can act alone.

She is y in love with Kuro, and says that she would do anything for Kuro to have a smile on her face. After she and White discover the purpose of the organization, and knowing that Kuro won't believe it, she begins to act on her own being misinterpreted as a betrayal by Kuro.

Main Characters
Kuro (黒<ヘイ> Voice: Hidetoshin Kiuchi)
An assassin known as the "God of the Black Death". He is a special contracted person who can freely manipulate electric current without paying for it and holds a human heart, Messier code name BK-201. He was active behind the incident known as the "Tokyo Big Bang" and then disappeared. After two years, he reappeared in Russia in the image of a ghost with a long history. He is an agent of the CIA, but in reality, he was commissioned by Ms. Aurelio to escort Sufjan to Tokyo. On the other hand, he is pursuing the whereabouts of Gin relentlessly.
During the two years of his life on the run, he became y attached to Gin and swore that he would never leave him. After the shock of Gin's "evolution" and departure, he became disillusioned and believed that he was responsible for Gin's change. He claims to want to kill Izanami (Gin) with his own hands, but is unable to do so at critical moments. He does not get along well with his fellow travelers, including Sufang, at first, but gradually accepts each other and sees Sufang as his past self.
Season 2 opens with a weapon attack by the Anti-Contractor, who is incapacitated and transforms back into a normal human being, and spends most of the season in this state. At the end of the story, he regains his powers in the Gate and uses them on Silver, and the two disappear into the light of Oddworld, leaving only the star of BK-201 to reappear in the starry sky.
Sufjan Pavlicheco (Sufjan Pavlicheco) is a member of the BK-201 team. Pavlichenko (苏芳?パブリチェンコ Voice: Hanazawa Kana)
The main character and heroine of "The Twins of Meteor". A 13-year-old girl living in Vladivostok. Born to a Russian scientist father and a Japanese mother, she has a twin brother, Aster. She is an all-around athlete and has an outgoing personality with a competitive streak that is no less than that of a boy. She has a passion for photography, but has no interest in romance.
After a series of tragic deaths of friends and family, he mutates into a contracted person. Her ability is to make a PTRD-41 out of thin air at the cost of origami. Although she hates Kuro, who killed her father, she traveled to Tokyo with him to find her brother. In the process, she developed complex feelings for Kuro, which eventually turned into love.
Self is in fact a copy of Aster, who is only different in gender, while the real Sufjan died in a bombing in Moscow eight years ago. Most of the memories, including the aquarium, were faked using ME technology and lent to the meteor core for immobilization. The trip to Tokyo was just an experiment to test the effect of memory immobilization. After the meteor core pendant he was wearing was shattered by Izanami, the memories that had been there were erased, and his soul was sent to the replica Earth. There, she is reborn as an ordinary female middle school student and lives happily with her parents. She still has a vague memory of "who she was guarded by", probably due to Kuro's parting words.
Cat (猫<マオ> Voice: Ikuya Sawaki)
Name Ricardo, an animal possessor and Kuro's companion in the previous game. He retains his memories from before the end of Tokyo Big Bang through memory backup. In the second season, he is entrusted by Ms. Aurelio to possess Sufjan's pet flying squirrel, "Peiqia", and act together with Kuro and Sufjan. When she was a human, she had a meeting with Asako Makinomiya, Sufjan's mother. After being blown up in a bombing in Moscow, he lost his body and has been possessed by an animal for a long time. At the end of the season, he joins forces with Kobayashi, Kirara, and Aureyu to form a new "organization". The movie also reveals that he is actually an ankle enthusiast and that he was once in love with Aureyu.
July (ジュライ Voice: Kiyomi Asai)
Doll, a teenager in MI6, uses metal and glass as a medium for spiritual observation. After MI6's successive failures in Vladivostok, he is sent undercover with Black and Sufjan. Afterwards, he develops a strong companionable bond with Sufjan, and in the end, he chooses to follow Sufjan himself. Together with Sufang, he is sent by Izanami to a replica Earth to be reborn.
Kirihara Misaki (雾原未咲(きりはら みさき) Voice: Mizuki Nana)
Formerly the head of the Foreign Affairs Section 4 of the Public Security Department of the Police Department, she was responsible for investigating cases related to contracted persons. After the disbanding of Section 4, he was transferred to the Hachijojima Police Station as the Chief, but never gave up on tracking down BK-201, and was invited by Goro Kobayashi to join the 3rd agency under the alias "Yayoi Ichinose". He is prompted by Ms. Aureu to find the clues left by Amber and learns about the "Mitaka Document". At the final stage of the Ark Project, he meets the last figures of Kuro and Gin inside the gate. He later formed an alliance with Kobayashi and Aureyu.
Pavlicheko (Aster) is a member of the Ark of the Dead. パブリチェンコ 声优:桑島法子)
苏芳的双胞胎弟弟. According to Sufjan's falsified memories, Aster lost his right eye two years ago due to the effects of a meteor core that fell from the sky, and became indentured, and as a price for that was confined to a life in a wheelchair. In reality, Aster has been an indentured servant since birth. Her ability is to make a copy with "one difference" at the cost of weakness. She has a cold personality, but has special feelings for Sufjan. After the Meteor Nuclear Crash, Aster duplicated himself and became the current "Sufang", and since then he has been working on his "Plan to Duplicate Earth (Ark Project)" as a gift to Sufang. Aster is the "Izanagi" of the "Mitaka Document". At the end of the season, she meets with Izanami and completes the replication of Earth with the latter's help. He died from overdrawing his powers.
Gin (银<イン> Voice: Fukumi Misato)
A companion of Kuro's in the same action team in the past, she was a Doll who manipulated the Observation Spirit through the medium of water, and left the organization together with Kuro after the Tokyo Big Bang. He has a deep love for Kuro.
Since the end of Season 1, he has been "evolving" and has gradually gained a sense of autonomy and a humanoid Observation Spirit, who has developed the ability to turn on his contractors and has acquired a negative personality independent of his own. He is recognized as the "Izanami" described in the "Mitaka Document" and is hunted by various forces. She was found by the Third Organ and sealed in a special device and transported from Sapporo to the old Pandora Institute in Tokyo. In the end, he was awakened and appeared in black form inside the gate. He helped Aster complete the transfer of all human memories to the Replica Earth, and also sent away the souls of Sufjan and July.
After meeting with Black inside the Gate, he regained the consciousness of White Silver and asked Black to kill himself. Finally, he disappears inside the door with Black. In a follow-up to the ending, a boy who looks like Silver and has Izanami-like powers appears inside the door despite multiple differences.

[edit]Related terms
"Gate"
The first season 10 years ago suddenly appeared at the ends of the earth, the unknown field with a diameter of 10 kilometers. The uncharted territory is 10 kilometers in diameter. The two "gates" are the "Heaven Gate" in Brazil and the "Hell Gate" in Tokyo. With the appearance of the gates, the space above the Earth beyond the stratosphere became inviolable. The stars and the moon disappeared and were replaced by a false starry sky. The sun became the only observable celestial body. "The Gate leads to the emergence of the Pact and the Doll, and can produce a variety of mysterious substances and species. Inside the Gate is a realm of death where all kinds of physical phenomena are distorted. Since the first season, five years ago, the Heavenly Gate has been covered by a 1500-kilometer radius field of isolation, leaving only the Hell Gate accessible to humans. The latter is also protected by a 500-meter-high wall that prohibits human access. At the end of the second season with the completion of the replicated Earth, the Hell Gate went from closed to open.
Compacts
The Gates appear as random mutations of human beings with superhuman abilities. Typical Pactors are constructed with a completely rational mind, and are generally ruthless. Pactors are also required to pay a "price" for the use of their powers, which is where the name "Pactors" comes from. Other than that, there is no difference between a Pactee and a normal human. Pactors may have the same ability, but the content of the price and the way it is paid varies. There is no absolute relationship between ability and price. [4] Each indentured servant has a corresponding star in the false starry sky. They have a spectral reaction when using their abilities, and fall as meteors when they die. Usually the stars of indentured servants who have been analyzed by the Astronomy Department are assigned a Messier code name. Those who do not pay the price will become "delayed payers" and lose control of their powers, and eventually lose themselves completely and become Dolls; there are also exceptions to this rule where they are exempt from the obligation to pay the price (e.g., by losing their own body).
Dolls
A special class of contractors, also mutated from humans. They have lost their emotions and self-awareness, and exist like dolls. They have the ability to manipulate spirits, but at no cost. They are widely used for intelligence gathering and are also sold as dolls, and there is a Doll Network that allows Dolls to communicate with each other; Dolls are also "evolving", the most radical example being Silver.
ME Technology
Meomory Erase, or memory erasure and tampering technology. It originated from the study of "gates" and was first pioneered by Dr. Pavlichenko. It is also derived from the ME Squeezer and ME Network theories. The latter is the basis for the extraction and transfer of all human memories in the Ark Program.
The Organization
The Organization is a huge shady organization that has infiltrated the power and intelligence agencies of every country in the world. Its full extent and ultimate purpose is a mystery. The plan to destroy the contracted people through the annihilation of the Gate is just one of its many plans. Only the United States is immune from the Organization's control. [There are also different factions and infighting within the Organization. At the end of Meteor's Twins, the Organization, which had been so powerful for so long, had retired from the scene of history.
PANDORA
Physicalquantity Alternation Natural Deconstruction Organized Research Agency, or PANDORA for short, is the United Nations' "gateway" research agency. PANDORA is the United Nations' "Gateway" research organization. The research institute in Tokyo is located inside the walls of the "Hell Gate". Although it is a research institute, it has its own armed forces and strictly monitors the entry and exit of its personnel. It was infiltrated by the Organization to a considerable degree. Under the command of Eric Nishijima. Nishijima, under the command of Eric Nishijima, participated in the implementation of the Saturn rings program.
EPR
Evening Primrose. It is an alliance of contractors under the leadership of Amber that fights for the rights of contractors and against the machinations of the Organization. In the first season, she planned the "Tokyo Big Bang" battle. In the first season, the organization planned the "Tokyo Bombing" battle, but after the battle, it lost all of its vital forces.
The Heavenly War
Five years ago in the first season, a war was fought in South America around the Heavenly Gates. Black, White, and Amber were thrown into the fray as soldiers of the Organization. The war ended with the outbreak of Heaven's Gate and the deaths of hundreds of millions of people in a 1500 kilometer radius. The second season states that the cause of the Heavenly War was the Mitaka Document.
Shards of Meteor
Mysterious substance from within the Gate. It has the effect of increasing the powers of the contracted individuals, and is used as a key component of the "Saturn Ring".
The Saturn Ring Project
Builds an anti-Gate particle gas pedal around the Hell Gate and fires it into the center of the Gate to annihilate it, destroying all the Pactees and restoring the true starry sky. The only time this happens is once every five years during the peak of a sunspot. The last similar operation was the "Jupiter Ring Project" at the South American Heavenly Gates, which was sabotaged by White. Saturn's rings were sabotaged by Black.
Tokyo Big Bang
TOKYO EXPLOSION, a plan to use the power of BK-201 to detonate the Gate with the aid of increased meteor debris to create an isolation field covering the entire island of Japan. The timing of the battle against the Saturn Rings program was also once every five years. Because Kuro could not bear the thought of sacrificing so many people, Amber complied with his wish to turn back the clock and canceled the launch of the Tokyo Big Bang. The name was later used to refer to the massive battle that took place in Tokyo and the destruction of the wall. After the Tokyo Bombing, the existence of the Compactors was officially publicized.
Meteor Nucleus
Mysterious substance from inside the Gate. It crashed in Siberia on the night of the Tokyo Big Bang and became the opportunity for Aster to begin the Ark program. It has the effect of immobilizing memories (souls) in replicas. It was used as a key component for transmitting the memories of all human beings when replicating Earth. The pendant that Su Fang is wearing is a small piece of the meteor core.
The Mitaka Instrument
The Mitaka Instrument contains a prophecy about "future memories". Written in a metaphorical and difficult to decipher language, the original text includes: "Izanagi looked out over the false bottom of the water and waited for Izanami, who crossed over from the bottom of the water, and the two of them finally met. Heaven and earth split in two, and the gates of hell opened with them. No one knows what comes out of the gate, but the battle never ends", and "The stringed moon that hangs forever in the sky is a sign that it will be complete, signaling the delivery of Izanami". In conjunction with the end of the Twins of Meteor, the records of the Mitaka Document are all confirmed. The two people most associated with the Mitaka Document are Amber and Hoshimi-sama. Who among them is the author of the prophecy and their connection to each other remains a mystery.
The Ark Project
Aster's plan to replicate Earth was compared by Aurelius to an ark that would preserve traces of human existence. To Aster it was a gift to Sufjan. In addition to Aster's abilities, the infusion of souls into those on Replica Earth must be assisted by Izanami. The entire process is documented by the Mitaka Instruments. The difference between the replica Earth and the original Earth is that there are no "gates" on the former.
