  Summary

  The Bubble Fall Phenomenon is only one of the many Chaos Events that have taken its course on Earth. These cyclical Events occur every hundred years, each one with different characteristics and central region. The year was 2018 when the heavens struck once more.

  Hibiki has felt alone and misunderstood for so long that he doesn’t know how to do ‘friends.’ Battlekour is a dangerous sport in which death is a very real possibility. That is, until you consider that starvation is also a very real possibility in this post-apocalyptic world. When Uta joins the fray, death becomes all the more relevant.

  I don't own Bubble (2022 anime film, directed by Tetsurō Araki). Obviously. Okay, I can check off the unnecessary disclaimer from my list.
