During the Age of Heroes, the mad titan known as Thanos obtained the Infinity Gauntlet and the Infinity Stones. With this much power, he nearly destroyed hundreds of cities. But with the help of a robot named Arsenal, the Avengers defeated Thanos and saved the world.
However, there was still lasting damage to Earth. The city of San Francisco was completely destroyed in a massive earthquake. Work was put into it with the help of Japanese immigrants. And by the end of the Age of Heroes, it was finished under a new name: San Fransokyo.
During that time, genius billionaire playboy philanthropist Tony Stark had an affair with a woman named Rumiko Fujikawa. Not only did that affair caused Stark Industries to become Stark-Fujikawa (since a company merge also took place around that time), but it led to the birth of a child. Unfortunately, the child was put in an orphanage and was eventually adopted by the Hamada family.
Decades passed, and the Stark legacy continued to live in the Hamada family. They remained in hiding, especially since a budding company named Alchemax was targeting them as one of their objectives was to eliminate all competing companies through any means necessary.
Now we get to 2099, the year this story takes place. The current Hamadas are Anthorny, his wife Miyu, and their two sons Tadashi and Hiro. They, along with Anthorny's younger sister Cass, are the remaining Hamadas left. Anthorny, Miyu, and Cass are fully aware of Alchemax's plan, so they hid the truth from Tadashi and Hiro, leaving them unaware of their Stark blood.
The two Hamada brothers are different from one another, as Tadashi pursued a career in robotics and medical care, while Hiro took an interest in fairy tales and sketching. Due to a prophecy predicted by a mutant named Zena (also known as Foresight), Tadashi firmly believed that Hiro had to like robotics as well. But Hiro was encouraged by his parents to continue his drawing hobby, resulting in the brothers having a distant relationship.
Now that you understand the basics, it's time to begin the story, where Hiro's life is about to change forever...
