Many years have passed since humanity was driven to the brink of extinction by the sudden emergence of the unknown life forms Gadoll. Those humans that survived now dwell in a 3000m-high mobile fortress Deca-dence built to protect themselves from the Gadoll threat. Denizens of Deca-dence fall into two categories: Gears, warriors who fight the Gadoll daily, and Tankers, those without the skills to fight.
One day, Natsume, a Tanker girl who dreams of becoming a Gear meets surly Kaburagi, an armor repairman of Deca-dence. This chance meeting between the seemingly two opposites, the girl with a positive attitude who never gives up on her dreams and the realist who has given up on his, will eventually shake the future course of this world.

I have come to the mid-career point in my career as an Animation Director, but I am so excited to tackle this untried genre. For sure now, my hands are still full of cuts that I do not know how to go through with. “DECA-DENCE” is full of highlights, the drama unfolding in a world that is larger than life, not to mention the fights against big monsters and a gigantic moving fortress, too!!”
