introduction

The boy keeps fighting. “Forgive yourself” Until that day–.

The mask of the god of war, the mask of the spider, the mask of the flame dragon, the mask of courage, the mask of vermilion–.

The “mask” gives power to the person who wears it.
Sometimes it expands the possibilities endlessly and sometimes brings unimaginable disasters.

The disciple of the legendary masked craftsman Gaston Lou
He was manipulated by the “mask of the martial arts” that he suddenly picked up, lost his reason and went out of control,
Unintentionally, he kills his companions and his master.

Despite despair, Perl decides to destroy the mask made by his master, which is scattered all over the world.
Go on a journey while facing the fatal sins he has committed.

“It would be cool if you say it’s atonement, but it’s not such a splendid mon.”

Meet your friends, and confront a mighty enemy.
Kamen Battle Fantasy begins!
