Anomaly Story
- Characteristics
- Appendix 1: Detailed Report on the Characteristics of Anomaly R-5791Ob This anomaly's main abilities are freeze and replay. Before encountering its main body, there are no obvious patterns for these abilities. When using freeze, a camera lens appears behind the target and lets out a countdown sound before shooting. When the countdown ends, objects within the camera's range will be frozen and become photographs. After a period of time, humans regain mobility, though they will feel sick and weak. Consecutive freezing may cause irreversible harm. It's easy to avoid being frozen: stay out of the camera's range before the countdown ends. Film - MANISH's second ability allows it to replay things previously photographed by film cameras within its influence, including those recorded by its own freeze ability. This second ability can replay scenes, often creating bizarre spaces. In some cases, these spaces appear as properly colored positives, while in others, they appear as negatives with colors inverted from reality. Sometimes, creatures frozen by this anomaly are dragged into an Anomalous Space, which also greatly increases the difficulty of locating the anomaly's main body. Within the space replayed by Film - MANISH comes with aggressive surge oddities, possibly from previously recorded images. One must be aware of such oddities when the scene suddenly changes. After approaching Film - MANISH's main body, the anomaly will protect itself by ramming, slamming, and whipping enemies with film strips, as well as use its replay ability to unleash items it captured before. At this stage, Film - MANISH will also replay previously frozen humans to assist it. However, this method has limitations: while duplicates are present, Film - MANISH's main body cannot move. After duplicates are defeated, the anomaly's main body also enters a weakened state. Film - MANISH's range of influence is limited to the photo studio. When common people encounter this anomaly, they can stay safe by refraining from provocation, and watch out for camera lenses that appear randomly, as well as leave the affected area as soon as they can.
- Anomaly Nexus
- Conquer everything it recorded—enter the Anomalous Space it forms and defeat it.
- Risk Assessment
- Hazardous but controllable. Studios with long-term unused film photography equipment should receive security training and follow additional anomaly response guidelines.
