Story Preview
Back Arrow is described thus- Ringarindo is a land surrounded by a wall. The wall conceals, protects, cultivates, and nurtures this land. The wall is god, the foundation of Ringarindo.
One day, a mysterious man named Back Arrow appears in Essha village on the outskirts of Ringarindo. Arrow lost his memories but says that all he knows is, “I came from beyond the wall.” To restore his memories, Arrow heads out beyond the wall but is embroiled in a battle with himself as the stakes.
The series will follow the main protagonist, Back Arrow, who taps into a special power to summon forth a special mech armor suit, Briheight. Yuuki Kaji stars as the titular character, Back Arrow.
