Library War

Step into a Japan where the government’s ‘Media Betterment Act’ reigns supreme, allowing a state-sanctioned committee to censor any media deemed offensive or harmful. Standing as the last bastion against this encroaching control is the Library Defense Force, a highly-trained, armed organization committed to protecting books and the freedom of information. This isn't just a philosophical debate; it's an all-out war, fought with tactics, firepower, and unwavering conviction in the stacks. Amidst this ideological battle, we follow Iku Kasahara, a new recruit whose clumsy demeanor belies her fierce dedication. Inspired by a mysterious "prince" who once saved her cherished books, she's determined to prove herself, even under the harsh tutelage of the demanding instructor Atsushi Dojo. Their contrasting personalities and intense training form the heart of a story that explores the surprising front lines of censorship and the timeless fight for intellectual liberty.
