1 part Ongoing Akari Tanaka was just an ordinary Gundam fangirl-obsessed with mecha battles, the lore of Iron-Blooded Orphans, and her favorite Mobile Suit, the Gundam Barbatos Lupus Rex. She dreamed of piloting it, imagining herself in the heat of battle, wielding its feral power with ease. But she never imagined her fantasy would become a reality.
One fateful night, Akari is approached by a mysterious person who claimed to be an author who offers her an unbelievable gift: the chance to pilot the Barbatos Lupus Rex in another world. With no hesitation, Akari accepts, only to wake up in the brutal world of Muv-Luv Alternative, where humanity is fighting a desperate war against the terrifying BETA.
Unlike others who would struggle to tame such a ferocious Mobile Suit, Akari discovers that the author grants her the ability to pilot the Lupus Rex as if she were born for it. She can unleash its devastating power with flawless precision and without the usual toll it takes on the body or mind.
As Akari joins the fight against the BETA, her presence shakes the foundations of this war-torn world. The Lupus Rex, a machine far beyond anything this Earth has ever seen, inspires hope among the battered UN forces-but also stirs fear and jealousy among those who distrust her abilities.
Thrown into a conflict where survival is never guaranteed, Akari must navigate the harsh reality of war while trying to stay true to her dreams. Can she use her gift to turn the tide against the BETA?
