LatestMira helps Kyōma put the pieces of his memories back together as they all fight to bring down Seameyer together.
Humanity has found a way to achieve infinite energy by using coils to draw it from the fourth plane: dimension "W". With the production of coils having been monopolized by the New Tesla energy company, freelance collectors are hired to find and remove any illegal, unofficial coils. This is the story of collector Kyōma, who also happens to have a huge hatred towards coils. During one of his missions he stumbles upon a female android that perceives herself as being human, leading the two to enter an unlikely partnership.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Dimension W premiered in the same 2016 winter season as Erased and Konosuba, getting overshadowed despite its ambitious worldbuilding.
Creator Yuji Iwahara originally designed Kyōma with a coil-powered prosthetic arm in early drafts, then deliberately made him tech-averse to create narrative friction.
