Biography
Kenji Endou grows up in late-1960s and early-1970s Japan, fascinated by manga and imagining himself fighting the apocalyptic threats he reads about. As children, he and his friends invent a world-conquest scenario so they can play the heroes. By 1997, Kenji runs his family's former liquor shop as a convenience store and raises his missing sister Kiriko's daughter.
Story spoilers
When events from the childhood scenario begin coming true, Kenji discovers that a masked figure called Friend is using those plans for real world conquest. As Friend's organization tightens its grip on the government, Kenji becomes a wanted man and continues opposing it from the streets, including through a protest song called "Bob Lennon."
