Plot
You’re not alone. Whenever, forever.

Yuta Hibiki is a first-year student in high school living in Tsutsujidai. One day, he woke up without his memories.

Yuta later meets “Hyper Agent GRIDMAN” who was inside an old computer.

GRIDMAN told him to fulfill his purpose. Yuta’s quest to understand the meaning behind those words and to find his memories began.

While all of this was sudden, Yuta had helpful assistance from his classmates, Sho Utsumi, Rikka Takarada, and Akane Shinjo, but…

Those peaceful days were destroyed mercilessly by a monster that suddenly appeared.

Marketing Campaign
For a limited time starting 6 October, Gridman appeared on every screen in Akihabara Electric Town. A suit actor wearing a suit of the new Gridman also walked around town.
