Quick Synopsis

In the Joker Systems, a group of five star systems, several kingdoms exist, each with knights who pilot large robotic machines called Mortar Heads. These knights, known as Headliners, rely on companions called fatimas—mostly female beings who look and think like humans but have enhanced physical abilities. Fatimas enable the Headliners to operate the Mortar Heads effectively, although they are unable to reproduce. The entire structure of kingdoms, knights, Mortar Heads, and fatimas is governed by Emperor Amaterasu and his elite Mirage Knights.

Detailed Synopsis of The Five Star Stories

Among the 5 star systems known as the Joker Systems, there are many kingdoms. There are knights within the kingdoms and these knights who control giant robots, Mortar Heads, are called Headliners. Bound to the knights are fatimas. Human in appearance and mind, the fatimas (mostly female) possess expanded physical capabilities and make it possible for a Headliner to control a Mortar Head. Fatimas cannot reproduce. All this is overseen by Emperor Amaterasu and his Mirage Knights.
