They become known as Adepts, and their powers Septima, and become feared by the populace. To protect the public, the Mega-Corp Sumeragi Group uses its "Psychic Protection Program" to keep both Adepts and regular folks safe. However, unbeknownst to the public, this "Psychic Protection Program" is a front for Sumeragi to catch and experiment on Adepts. Upon learning of their atrocities, the independent organization "QUILL" (FEATHER in Japan) is formed to counter Sumeragi and free Adepts under their control.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })This is the story of the titular Gunvolt, a young teen freed from Sumeragi's experiments by Asimov, an Adept who leads QUILL's SHEEPS unit in Japan.

Broad Strokes | |
| Azure Striker Gunvolt / int_547196be | comment |
Broad Strokes: The latter half of the episode is a loose adaptation of the first game's first mission, with several liberties taken. Gunvolt is never tortured, he simply breaks free once he knows Lumen is on the train and grabs Creepy Electro-Whip Guy's electrified whip to recharge himself. The train segment is cut down to just two Mantis showing up, and Asimov personally dispatches the second. Merak is fought on the train. In the game, Merak is a completely separate level. As mentioned in Adaptation Expansion, the scene where Gunvolt frees Joule is extended. Gunvolt doesn't break from QUILL on the spot. He is instead disavowed by Asimov post-mission. | |

Pragmatic Adaptation | |
| Azure Striker Gunvolt / int_603f1a80 | comment |
Pragmatic Adaptation: Most of the entire train sequence is cut. This makes sense, since realistically, there would really be no reason for a big platforming level full of guards on a moving train. | |

BFS: Luxcalibur, of course. However, while in the game, Gunvolt simply summons the sword to inflict damage, in the anime, Gunvolt grabs it by its handle and cleaves Merak clean into two. | |

Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": This is the first iteration of the series where the creepy electro-whip guy is actually called "Creepy Electro-Whip Guy"note The Japanese dub calls him "perverted old man", although the name was coined earlier by official online media. In the translations and dub, this is the only name he's known as. The Japanese credits gives his name as "Romeo". | |

Flanderization: In the games, Merak is a slacker who plays online games as a pastime. In the anime, his slacker traits are practically non-existent and his game traits are taken way Up to Eleven, to the point where he proactively engages Gunvolt and constantly uses game terminology such as "session", "cheating", and "respawn". | |
