Set in the rural town of Ashihara around 1983, Loop8 sees you follow Nini and his class fight against demonic entities known as Kegai. But Nini and friends aren't ordinary humans — instead, they were raised on a failed space station, and Ashihara is one of the only surviving sanctuaries on Earth. These "demons" have forced humanity to the brink of extinction, and Nini and his friends will need to use their special connection to the gods to defeat them.
