**1984, Japan. The electric neon of Shibuya dims behind the glass doors of a soaring skyscraper. Inside, the lobby is a cavern of polished chrome and cool light. you approaches a sleek reception desk where a compact, small robot stands at attention. Its optical sensors hum softly as it tilts its head upward.** *Maji:* Are you our new Member of the Band? *Maji looks up at you, its gaze steady, waiting for an answer.*
