s-CRY-ed	comment	A massive disaster hits Japan, turning the Kanagawa Prefecture of Japan into a new island officially known as the "Muraji Special Economic District", but more colloquially called the Lost Ground. The disaster also causes 1% of the babies born there to develop superpowers. Now, before you pass this off as your standard Mutant story, remember that this is anime: Instead of being born with powers such as quick healing, reading minds or controlling magnets, the "Alter Users" have the power to call upon and use mecha in battles. By dismantling nearby matter—areas of landscape, vehicles, watermelons, or even dead bodies—and reassembling it, they can summon separate, machine-like beings known as Alters, which personify a superpower of some sort.Some Alter Users are "alloy-types", summoning Alters which form part of themselves, and one or two display the ability to affect other's Alters without summoning one themselves. For the most part, though, Alters are used like Mons, though a given person does not tend to acquire more than one. The nature of the superpowers varies from typical Stock Superpowers to really weird ideas such as "turn anything into water", "turn any car into a pink Mach 5", "summon an enormous gun", or even "do anything, as long as it involves watermelons".The mainland's military police force for the Lost Ground, HOLD, works to keep the Alter User population in check while rebuilding civilization on the island. The group even employs a special strike group, HOLY, that is made up entirely of Alter Users. All the while, various rebels and thugs put up a resistance against HOLD and HOLY, and small communities live independently of the government in the wilder lands. One such "thug" is the mercenary Kazuma, whose rescue of a HOLY chairman captures the attention of one of HOLY's soldier, Ryuuhou, and ultimately kickstarts a series of events that threatens both the Lost Ground and Japan as a whole.Broadcast in 2001, s-CRY-ed was produced by Sunrise and developed by Goro Taniguchi who wanted to make a show with an alternate take on the themes explored in Infinite Ryvius as well as how people would adjust to the 21st century.The series was originally licensed for American distribution by Bandai Entertainment, releasing DVD sets through 2003 and 2004, alongside select episodes appearing on [adult swim]'s video-on-demand service through 2004 until the full series was run on the channel itself in 2005. After Bandai Entertainment's closure in 2012, Sentai Filmworks picked up the American distribution rights. However, they never released the series on DVD or Blu-Ray, and eventually the license was picked up by Discotek Media in 2020, with a new release on Blu-Ray in early 2021. A set of light novels, s-CRY-ed Atarashiki Meiyaku and the two-volume s-CRY-ed After, were written by Kazuho Hyodo in 2002 and 2003 under the Dengeki Bunko imprint, with a complete-version rerelease of s-CRY-ed After in 2012. So far, none of the light novels have been translated into English.A pair of Compilation Movies, s-CRY-ed Alteration I Tao and s-CRY-ed Alteration II Quan, were released in 2011 for the tenth anniversary of the series, featuring additional new footage to revise the original story. So far, there are no plans to license the Alteration movies in English.The manga (written by Yosuke Kuroda, with art by Yasunari Toda), which was serialized after the anime had already started airing, makes a number of changes: Whereas the anime uses subtle characterization and two mutually-antagonistic Antihero leads—the Knight Templar and the Idiot Hero—without overly favoring one or the other, the manga often resorts to Card Carrying Villains and offers a different explanation as to the Meta Origin of the Alters. It's also Hotter and Sexier, and the artist proudly chooses to wear the premise's resemblance to Jojos Bizarre Adventure on its sleeve. Tokyopop released the manga in English in 2003. Motion Comic adaptations of several of the most memorable chapters were produced, with the anime's Japanese voice actors reprising their roles; these were included as subtitled extras on the Discotek Blu-Ray release.

It's not that she's wrong, just naïve. In the end, while Kazuma and Ryuuhou are off fighting the Lost Ground's enemies, she is teaching its children.

Once he fails to rescue the captive Native Alters from HOLY, Kimishima is killed, and he triggers the Second Uprising, he slips into an epic Heroic BSoD.

He loses control over it, briefly sends himself and Ryuuhou to the Other Side, and causes the Second Uprising. Ryuuhou sees the Crystal after he and Kazuma get thrown into the Other Side, but he doesn't get a chance to fight him before he's blown away. The second time, the Crystal kills him, at least until Scheris revives him. The third fight he wins, after fusing with Zetsuei.

s-CRY-ed / int_54d484de	comment	Lighthearted Rematch: Subverted. After teaming up and defeating the real Big Bad, the two leads decide to have a bout to see who is the best once and for all, but this takes up the entire last episode and is the longest and definitely most brutal fight in the entire series. It's pointed out and lampshaded several times during the episode that neither of them actually hates the other anymore: it's just that they can't calm down until they finally settle their score. It appears to end in a double knockout, but one last shot as the credits start imply that at least one is still moving. A hand rises behind a curtain of dust, and does a gesture typical for Kazuma after appearing to do Ryuuhou's signature knife-hand tic. A similar event happens at the end of Kazuma's Enemy Mine team-up with Asuka Tachibana. After defeating the Native Alter animal and escaping the cave-in, the two admit that they don't actually hate each other anymore — but are still resolved to finish their own fight. Kazuma wins decisively again, but tells Asuka that he's free to either give up and die or just move on before walking away.

Then, after it appears Ryuuhou's won their third encounter Kazuma whips out his second form... or at least he tries to. He loses control over it, briefly sends himself and Ryuuhou to the Other Side, and causes the Second Uprising.

s-CRY-ed / int_9a172e4c	comment	Dump Them All: In the anime, the Scheris/Mimori/Ryuuhou love triangle ends with Scheris dead and Ryuuhou rejecting Mimori despite his implied attraction to her because he feels it would not be right. Although Ryuuhou displayed no attraction to Scheris, she died for him because she loved him, so once Mimori confesses her love for him, it's implied that Ryuuhou fears her meeting the same fate, so he turns her down. By contrast, Scheris lives in the manga and starts a relationship with Ryuuhou.

s-CRY-ed / int_9c224098	comment	Deliberately Bad Example(s): Quite a lot for both HOLY and the Lost Ground, with regards to Alter Users on both sides. In the Lost Ground, Biff's arrogant bullying is meant to contrast with Kazuma's more free-wheeling, live-and-let-live lifestyle. Similarly, other unnamed villainous Alter Users in one of Mimori's flashbacks are shown proudly posing with their Alters for the camera in front of the destruction they have just caused. On HOLY's end, George Tatsunami, Emergy Maxfell, Sou Kigetsuki, and Kyouji Mujou are all examples of how Ryuuhou's nobler intentions act as a check for the potential excesses he could fall into during his pursuit of revenge and justice. In particular, Kigetsuki's smug arrogance demonstrates this to an amnesiac Ryuuhou, showing him what he looked like from the perspective of Kazuma and the Inners. Result: Heel–Face Turn. Kazuma still pisses him off by breathing, but that is just Teeth-Clenched Teamwork.

Though this effect is used only for horizontal movement, they can achieve a pretty impressive flight time when propelling themselves from an elevated surface. The trope is downplayed with Kazuma's second form, which basically tacks a propeller onto his back. Though we're never shown just how long he can maintain flight, he can use it to hover for short periods, as well as gain higher ground. Completely averted with Kazuma and Ryuuhou's final forms, which let them fly right into outer space.

s-CRY-ed / int_cf41a26	comment	Deadly Upgrade: Upgrading one's Alter ability causes gradual but irreversible damage to one's body. An unnatural upgrade, such as the mainland's "refinement", seems to cause more immediate damage, as evidenced by Zigmarl's Rapid Aging and Cougar's odd walk plus the gray streaks in his hair. In extreme cases such as Ayase's refinement, the process does enough damage that the Alter User can die from extreme stress. In contrast, "natural" Alter Users suffer damage at a more gradual pace. Kazuma and Ryuuhou both seem to suffer minor physical deformations from using their Alters. Kazuma suffers more than Ryuuhou, as the former's body-reshaping Alter modifies him at all three stages, leading to his arm being the most drastically affected and partial blindness when he's not using Shell Bullet, while Ryuuhou has an independent Alter that just becomes a suit of armor at Level 3, so his changes are minor. In the epilogue of the series, however, the damage done from continuous use of the Alter does catch up to Ryuuhou.

Due to severe trauma he experienced as a child, his Alter only activates when he feels he is in extreme peril—"a pinch situation", as he likes to call it—at which point a Humongous Mecha bursts from the ground to "save him from the pinch".

Kazuma and Ryuuhou get plenty of these moments, too.

s-CRY-ed / int_ebaf3065	type	Powers Do the Fighting
s-CRY-ed / int_ebaf3065	comment	Powers Do the Fighting: Ryuuhou hangs back and allows his Alter, Zetsuei, to do most of the fighting for him. Ryuuhou is one of the most powerful Alters in HOLY, and Zetsuei is more than capable of defending Ryuuhou from attacks while dominating other Alters simultaneously. Kazuma taunts him about this early in the series, before Ryuuhou socks him in the gut with his bare hand.

s-CRY-ed / int_f801c6f0	comment	Weaponized Ball: Asuka Tachibana's Alter is called Eternity Eight, also know as the Eight Treasure Balls. For the most part, they're a Swiss-Army Superpower, able to create energy constructs of a sort (making a Laser Blade by arranging them in a line, or a shield by making them flat). However, in the manga, they can combine into a giant ball which he can launch at enemies.

s-CRY-ed / int_f9f2c33	comment	Running Gag: Straight Cougar getting people's names wrong, e.g. "Minori" for Mimori and "Kazuya" for Kazuma. Kazuma himself occasionally does this too which is foreshadowing the fact that Cougar raised Kazuma as a younger sibling figure. Kimishima's mode of transport getting destroyed by accident is another one.
