The story starts in 2014, where Shibuya (a Japanese city/district) has become independent of Japan. It is a city filled with rubble and chaos. However, it is in this city that Prayers exist. Prayers are basically musicians that battle through music, where implants to their heads amplify sound signals to the extent that losers of the battle may very well die. All this as a career of course.

Personal Comments:
I’ve uploaded a couple of short clips to provide some sort of preview to the series that words cannot express. On to the series itself, for one, I feel that it this first episode managed to setup a possibly interesting storyline. Of course, battling through music is nothing new, with Macross 7 also based on this premise. But, this series is definitely going to be more gruesome (Not to the level of Gantz (uncensored), but still…).
Moreover, it is only an OVA with 4 episodes. Therefore, I can’t really see how much “story” can fit in although the first ep. seems to allude to quite a bit.
