Story
Girls who reach eighteen in this world turn into battle mechas, and men become the pilots who lead them. Ethan has just awakened as an SSS-rank pilot, and striking mecha partners, each with a distinct temperament and arsenal, await him. Every victory brings bigger challenges, and his enemies come after him. He has to grow stronger and master his machine girls.
