AD 2018.
The war has not ended.

What suddenly appeared 13 years ago that attacked humanity.
"Those That Were Once Gods", or rather,
"Those Wrested of Godhood"...
OLD REBELLION / OR

For Humans to stand up to the threat,
Luciola Cruciata was established by IJUUIN Group.
Their research found the existence of "Youth that display superior abilities with the light and spirit of young life that can eradicate the OR".
Out of respect, they called those young boys and girls
Glowlies (Those Who Glow = Glow Flies)

Five months prior. The Void Gate Disaster.
Parts of the OR took knowledgable manoeuvres to open "gates" from the world they lived into the human world and plotted mass invasion.
Thwarted by the Glowlies, starting with MASAYOSHI NEGITA, this commotion was settled by sealing the gates with the power of the Shinto Priest of Momotuka Shrine.

Two months prior, Soul Stained Juvenile.
YOSHIMASA SERIZAWA was in slumber for 13 years from the incident in which HINAGIKU IJUUIN was attacked by OR.
Having awakened, and with both great abilities as a Glowly and exceptional Dark abilities, he is taken in by HINAGIKU's team and actively joins the Glowlies.
In the midst of doubts and uncertainties he remembers everything from 13 years ago and throws aside his doubts thanks to the faith of his companions.
Taking in the power of the "Stained Crystal" embedded in his body, he goes through "Arousal" and becomes a unified Glowly.

Some time passes.
People went back to their peaceful everyday lives, but have not forgotten their new fear.

"Humans taken in by the Kegare no Crystal become OR."

MASAYOSHI takes up the sword to carry out his own justice.
Without parents, fighting as a Glowly was his way of life.
YOSHIMASA takes up the blade to repay the kindness to HINAGIKU and the others.
Relieving HINAGIKU of all that troubled her was his way of life.

OR of new strength. OR Level 4: High Joker.
Those were the forms of humans that fell into darkness and changed into OR.
Glowlies confront the Stained KIZUNA that cover the city.

The fight to end all that happened 13 years ago. And, the fight to live...

The conclusion to Part 1 of the Glowlies' story.
