4Joki wakes up surrounded by strange-looking nurses in a hospital in the city of Aisho with no recollection of what happened on February the 29th. After being coldly treated by the hospital staff, Joki leaves the hospital and discovers the creatures called the 'animated' that roam the streets. He later meets other humans who also have no memories of February the 29th.

10!! Tropes included in this work:
11
12* AfterTheEnd: Ace tells Joki that the world had ended and animated now run the world.
13* AmazingTechnicolorWorld: Aisho is a colorful, neon city resembling downtown Tokyo.
14* AmnesiacHero: The kids have no memory of February 29th, prior to the events beginning the comic.
15* ArcSymbol: Stars often appear in the form of Joki's birthmark, Ace's necklace, and Kirous' character design.
16* CoolMask: Some humans wear masks [[spoiler:to fool animated into thinking they are animated so they don't attack them.]]
17* CuteMonsterGirl: Many of the animated characters such as Andromeda and Hershey fall into this category.
18* DopeSlap: Jack delivers one to Ace when he lets a supposed animated steal their van.
19* FedToTheBeast: [[spoiler:What Jack and Ace intend to do to Joki when they believe he's an animated.]]
20* TheGadfly: Ace seems to be this, pretending to shoot Joki when he meets him.
21* GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: Each area in Aisho city has a Queen who has to be killed in order to make it out. If the rest of them are anything like [[GreenAndMean Andromeda,]] this definitely qualifies.
22* GreatBigBookOfEverything: Ace carries a mysterious book with information about how to leave Aisho city.
23->Ace: It has important information about the city…and all the things you want to know.
24* HaveWeMet: It's heavily implied that Meri and Joki knew each other before the events of the story.
25* MoneySpider: Killing regular animated drops money cards [[ZigZaggingTrope or healing cards]].
26* PlayingCardMotifs: The characters seem to be named after playing cards. Joki = joker, Ace = ace, Jack Spades = spades...
27* ShoutOut: [[http://www.colorlesscomic.com/comic/page-262/#00256 This page]] is a notable example, referencing Living When Dead, ''Webcomic/CountdownToCountdown'', ''Manga/CardCaptorSakura'', and ''Webcomic/AvasDemon''.
28** [[http://www.colorlesscomic.com/comic/page-389/#00386 Andy's room]] later references ''Webcomic/CucumberQuest''.
29* SleptThroughTheApocalypse: The main crux of the opening.
30* SmokingIsCool: Ace is smoking in his [[http://www.colorlesscomic.com/comic/page-070/#0077 first appearance]], and with pink smoke at that.
31* StraightManAndWiseGuy: Often the dynamic between Jack and Ace.
32->Ace: Good job, Jack. You sure JACKED him up real good.
33->Jack: [[LamePunReaction Shut up Ace.]]
34* TitleDrop: Of the first chapter.
35->Ace: Make a wish...and don't drown.
