There's a lot to be interested about with Memoria, because I think it's a pretty good representation of how the afterlife could be marketed to those who aren't ready/don't want to die. It felt real...
The year is 2033, eighty years after the world was plunged into a nuclear conflict that left much of the land uninhabitable and world economies and cultures teetering on the brink of collapse. Japanese company—LiveRite Corporation—has completed work on a groundbreaking project. ‘Project Memoria’ gives families the option to scan their loved ones into the Digiscape, a virtual experience to house the minds and memories of the recently deceased so that they might live on forever. At a small, recurring cost.
But if something seems too good to be true, it usually is, says Nagai Jiro, a convicted killer who finds himself signed up to be a Hunter in this strange new digital world. Tasked with protecting the existences who call the Digiscape home, he must team up with other Hunters to fight for his freedom and find out who was behind his wife's death.
