s-CRY-ed is a 26-episode Japanese anime TV series, produced by Sunrise, directed by Gorō Taniguchi and written by Yōsuke Kuroda, which first aired in Japan on TV Tokyo and Animax. It centers around the conflict between a group Alter users (people with special matter creating/rearranging powers) and HOLY, an organization that classifies all Lost Ground (an area outside of Mainland Japan) Alter users as criminals.

• (Reading the thoughts of Kazuma and Ryuho in episode 26) "It's not that I hate the person in front of me. If I had met him under different circumstances, this never would have happened. But I did meet him that day, and now there is no turning back. I must distinguish the difference between past and present. Everything must be left behind, and the man in front of me is the wall; the wall that I must break through. There is only one direction for me to go. I have to move forward. That's what I'm thinking.... You too"
