Daphne in the Brilliant Blue
Maia Mizuki's dream is to join the Ocean Agency. She tries as hard as she can but when she is not accepted, she faces homelessness and hopelessness. Then a series of unfortunate happenings force her into a job with Neres, a security and investigation company that will also do almost anything for money. It soon becomes obvious that no one “normal” works at Neres. Shizuka is a kind, tech-crazy young woman with a passion for food; Glora is a trigger-happy, money-loving tomboy; Yuu, a quiet, brooding woman, is frighteningly deadly in combat; and Rena is the alluring, unofficial leader of this particular Neres office. With Neres, Maia faces danger and crazy situations daily; it’s almost too much for her, but Maia is strong, and she does her best to hang on and make it through this unexpected turn her life has taken.
