Synduality: Noir anime is a component of Bandai Namco Entertainment's larger Synduality project. As part of this project, the company plans to launch a game called Synduality: Echo of Ada. The game is set in the year 2222, while the anime takes place in the year 2242.

Following the occurrence of a devastating event known as the "Tears of the New Moon," humanity was forced to seek sanctuary underground. However, with the collapse of the underground city-state known as "Amasia," individuals have begun to venture back to the surface in search of a new life.

The settlements on the surface, known as "Nests," were scattered all over the world. However, to carry out the necessary operations in these Nests, an energy resource called "AO Crystals" was required. Consequently, the adventurers, known as "Drifters," had to constantly face the persistent threat of "Enders" and extract the AO Crystals through mining.

One of the nests was known as "Rock Town," where Drifters would congregate. Constantly interacting with them, a young boy named Kanata harbored ambitions of becoming a Drifter himself.

On a fateful day, Kanata embarked on an exploration expedition alongside a Drifter named Tokio. It was during this mission that they stumbled upon a breathtaking slumbering being called Noir, referred to as a "Magus." The encounter between Kanata and Noir set in motion a captivating tale of destiny.
