This article contains spoiler information regarding the topic in question. Do not proceed unless you want to be spoiled. |
| “ | Nope, you can't be more popular than me. I mean, I'm the main character of this franchise and stuff. | ” |
— Neptune
| ||
The main character of the Hyperdimension Neptunia series. She is the Console Patron Unit (CPU) of Planeptune and older sister of Nepgear. In her human form she looks and acts young, but when she activates Hard Drive Divinity (HDD) she becomes much more mature in both appearance and personality.
Profile
Neptune
Neptune is the human form of the CPU Purple Heart. She is often considered to be energetic and dorky. Her favorite food is custard pudding and she loves playing video games. Eggplants are her most hated food, stating that they are not "people food". While she enjoys playing all games, she especially loves Retro video games.
Appearance
Parka Dress
In her Parka Dress, Neptune has short lilac hair with bangs that reach down to her collar bone and purple eyes. In her hair she wears white hair-clips in the shape of D-pads and around her neck is a choker that has a light blue D-pad symbol on it. She wears a mostly white hoodie dress that has a light purple hood, strings that look like controller plugs, and two huge purple and white pockets with purple D-Pad symbols on them. The sleeves have two light blue strips going all the way down while the front of the hoodie only contains one. The ends of the sleeves and the bottom of the hoodie have dark and light purple stripes. The zipper emblem and the back of the hoodie has a purple letter "N" to represent the first symbol of her name. She wears light blue and white striped thigh high socks with frills at the tops and her shoes are purple and blue.
Jersey Dress
In her Jersey Dress, Neptune wears a a choker around her neck with a light blue D-pad symbol on it and short sleeved mini hoodie with blue and purple lining around the sleeves and the hood. The hoodie is closed by a button emblem with a large N in the middle and has two strings that look like controller plugs. Underneath she wears a dark purple dress lined with light purple which zips up from the front and has pockets on both sides along with white lining along the bottom. Her socks are light blue and white striped thigh high socks with frills at the tops and her shoes are purple and blue with an N on them.
Personality
Neptune is a happy, excitable girl with a very strong sense of justice. Her ditzy personality causes her to be very careless at times which can either help her or land her into serious trouble. She makes friends rather easily due to her friendly nature and often gives them cute nicknames. People admire her optimistic outlook and confidence. She never gives up or backs down when the going gets tough and she makes sure to see her objective through to the very end.
Purple Heart
Purple Heart is the goddess form of Neptune. She is considered to be cool, collected, just, and overall much more mature in comparison to her human form. While the personality and appearance change is major between the two forms, she still retains some aspects of her human form albeit to a lesser extent.
Appearance
Purple Core
In her Purple Core, Purple Heart has long purple hair in twin tails that almost reaches her feet and bright blue eyes with white pupils in the shape of power signs. She wears black hair clips with glowing blue D-Pad shapes on them, and a black body suit that exposes her chest somewhat. Both of the bodysuit's shoulder areas contain a white outlined D-pad symbol and the arm areas contain purple along the sides while the front of the bodysuit also contains purple areas near the bottom. On the breast areas you can see a single purple strip. Purple Heart's leg-wear seems as though it is the same as her human forms only it appears as black boots with purple tips instead.
Lost Purple Core
Purple Heart's appearance in her Lost Purple Core is reminiscent of the Purple Core but with much more stylization and design. Her hair and hair clips remain the same while her bodysuit, while still black, has purple and blue lining all around the torso and arms. The middle of the torso has purple mesh, allowing a vague vertical view of her stomach. She also wears thigh high boots with octagon patterns on the side at the very top; one filled it with purple and another just a white outline. This appearance was carried over after Victory, although her human form reverted to her original appearance.
Personality
Purple Heart is a serious and mature person. She's often calm and rarely changes facial expressions. She is a very observant and intelligent female, thinking in a rational matter most of the time. She is the complete opposite of her human form in many aspects but her strong sense of justice and confidence remains unchanged. It can be said that Purple Heart is a bit arrogant, having a strong confidence in her abilities and believing that no one can defeat her. Despite her change in personality, there are times that where Purple Heart acts like her human form, evident when Neptune turns into Purple Heart just to ride a roller coaster.
Next Purple
Purple Heart's evolved form. Due to the arms equipped to the back, arms and legs unit, the high specs of the Goddess Form are further improved. The power possessed is said to have been surely obtained by a miracle.
Appearance
Her hair has changed to a lighter shade of purple and her twin tails have become loose. Her hair have also gotten longer. Her hairclips have opened up from their orb form. They are extend in four directions. Her black bodysuit extends throughout her body and the purple mesh that appears in her stomach now also appears in thighs but disappear from her armpits. Outside the mesh is blue outlines.
Personality
As Purple Heart is relatively calm, her Next Purple personality remains the largely the same as Purple Heart. As Neptune is rarely in her Next Purple form, Next Purple has never acted like her human form in terms of her immaturity. Her senses of justice remains strong as ever.

Story
Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2
Neptune and the other CPUs face off against CFW Magic in the Gamindustri Graveyard but are easily defeated by her. They, along with Nepgear, are captured and imprisoned for three years. Compa and IF arrive on a rescue mission and only manage to save Nepgear while Neptune and the others are left behind.
Nepgear returns to the Gamindustri Graveyard along with the other CPU Candidates and take on CFW Judge before using the enhanced Sharicite to restore the CPUs' lost power. Neptune and Nepgear share a heartfelt reunion and Neptune apologizes for having left her alone for so long and promises to never leave her side again.
When they return to Planeptune to rest. Neptune and the other CPUs end up saving Nepgear and the CPU Candidates who had encountered CFW Magic in their investigation of the Gamindustri Graveyard. She and the other CPUs revert to their human forms due to being tired and Neptune joins the group immediately after to help Nepgear. She, and the other CPUs, assist in stopping Arfoire Syndicate of International Crime's (ASIC's) operations and defeating the four felons. However, this leads to unavoidable revival of Arfoire.
Neptune and the others head to the Gamindustri Graveyard to fight her, only to find their efforts to be for naught as Arfoire creates a new vessel containing all the power in the Gamindustri Graveyard.
Neptune and the others return to Planeptune to explain the situation to the Oracles, however during the meeting they are notified that that a member of the Four Felons has appeared in each nation demanding for everyone to worship Arfoire or they will all be killed.
After hearing about Caelus from Mina, they seek her out and request information on how to beat Arfoire. Once they obtain the information they were looking for, Neptune and her friends head back to Basilicom to report their findings before relaxing in a hot spring prepared for them by Histoire. The following day, they head out to deal with the Four Felons.
After learning the best way to defeat Arfoire from an old Planeptune CPU by the name of Caelus, the party heads to the Gamindustri Graveyard's heart to defeat Arfoire once and for all. Neptune and the others pour their faith into Nepgear which allows her to defeat the Deity of Sin. After saving Gamindustri from destruction, Neptune along with everyone else, reverts back to their normal lives.
The party returns to the Planeptune Basilicom to discuss their next course of action. Having struggled so hard against CFW Magic, they begin to doubt their ability to beat Arfoire on their own power. Nepgear suddenly remembers the story she heard about the unused cursed sword that can only be used to defeat evil. Having no other possibilities for defeating Arfoire, the Oracle begin doing research on the sword while Neptune and the others go around and ask the townspeople for information.
After finding the sword they are told they must offer the lives of CPUs to power it. Everyone is surprised and naturally refuses to use such a horrible method to defeat the Deity of Sin. Nepgear proposes that other nations pour their shares into Planeptune and allow Neptune and Nepgear to fight Arfoire; that way no one will have to die. The CPUs instantly decline, not wanting to sacrifice their nations before themselves. However, Nepgear is still intent with doing her plan and so Neptune follows along with her.
Neptune and Nepgear begin taking shares from the other nations and are eventually confronted by the CPUs. With every encounter the two sisters end up killing the other CPUs with the cursed sword since they finally realize there is no other way to defeat Arfoire.
When they return to Planeptune, Neptune takes Nepgear to where they used to play when they were younger. It is there she requests for Nepegar to kill her as well because they need all the power they can get if they want to save Gamindustri. Despite Nepgear's initial refusal, Neptune manages to convince her and suffers the same fate as the other CPUs. She attempts to comfort Nepgear in her final moments by saying that she will be fighting alongside her inside that sword.
Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth2 SISTERS GENERATION
The events of Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth2 mirror that of Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2 with the exception of the holy sword route.
Neptune is happy Nepgear broke the cursed sword, keeping the goddesses together but unsure of how to defeat Arfoire as a result. Nepgear assures Neptune that they can reforge the sword instead. Afterwards, Nepgear reforges the cursed swords using Sharicites from all four nations.
Neptune assists the party in fighting the revived four felons. Nepgear then defeats the Deity of Sin with her reforged sword and Gamindustri Graveyard collapses. Like the true ending, Neptune refuses to leave Nepgear, who is unable to move after the fight. The other goddesses assist Neptune in getting Nepgear to safety.
With Gamindustri Graveyard gone, Gamindustri is saved from ASIC's menace.
Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory
Purple Heart is fighting against the other three CPUs and is eventually defeated by them. It is revealed that they are actually playing a video game and Nepgear arrives with snacks for them all. At the same time, Histoire arrives and begins to lecture Neptune and Nepgear on what it means to be CPUs, and kicks them both out to do work.
After getting a quest from the guild, Neptune and Negear head out to complete it which leads to Neptune learning that she has gone from level 99 to level 1 due to being lazy. After completing the quest, Neptune and Nepgear head to the other nations to see what the CPUs and Candidates are up to before returning to Planeptune.
Ont their way back to the Basilicom they bump in to Rei who is in the middle of handing out fliers to support her Anti-CPU Campaign. Rei becomes frightened when she realizes that Neptune and Nepgear are the goddesses of Planeptune and quickly runs off after apologizing. After this, the two continue on to the Basilicom where IF and Compa greet them.
Histoire mentions the Citizen's Group who is running the Anti-CPU campaign against Neptune, but Neptune doesn't seem all that concerned about it. IF only adds to her lack of concern by saying the group barely has any members and that representative is a real pushover.
The next day, Nepgear forces Neptune to go out and work on her own. Despite Neptune's pleas, she ends up leaving the Basilicom to go and do some work by herself which leads to her second encounter with Rei. It is revealed that Rei had been lost ever since she ran off yesterday. Rei becomes highly upset at Neptune due to her carefree attitude and when Neptune tries to cheer her up, it only angers her further. This results in Rei unknowingly using the dark energy given to her to send Neptune to the Ultradimension.
Neptune finds herself in the Ultradimension after falling from the sky and landing on Noire. She meets a girl named Plutia who claims to be the CPU of a recently chartered nation by the name of Planeptune. Neptune is surprised by this since to her knowledge she is the CPU of Planeptune. She tries her best to convince Noire and Plutia that she is a CPU but is unable to do so after finding out that she can't even transform. Upon learning that humans can become CPUs by using a CPU Memory, Neptune decides to find one with Noire and reattain her ability to transform (and also to prevent herself from aging). The Seven Sages, who are alerted by Rei that Planeptune as another CPU, sends Abnes to go check things out; only for her to see that Neptune isn't a CPU and thus believing the information to be false.
When the Histoire of the Ultradimension makes her appearance, she states feeling a connection to Neptune despite having no recollection of ever meeting her prior. Neptune explains her situation to Histoire which leads her to concluding that Neptune is from another dimension. In order to see if this is valid, Histoire attempts to contact the Histoire in the Hyperdimension to see if what Neptune says is true. Though, she mentions that process will take three days.
Noire makes her way to Zeca Ruins No. 1 in the hopes of finding a CPU Memory from the Memory Core. Neptune follows her, wanting to obtain a CPU Memory as soon as possible and Plutia naturally tags along as well. When they arrive they are met with Arfoire and Pirachu who have two CPU Memories from the Memory Core with them. Noire, not wanting to let this one chance slip her by, tries to take them by force with Neptune following after her. Arfoire gives the CPU Memories to Pirachu so he can escape with them while she deals with Neptune and Noire. However, Pirachu is followed by Plutia who ends up transforming and taking the CPU Memories away from him.
Neptune and Noire find themselves unable to defeat Arfoire until Plutia arrives with the CPU Memories and hands them over in exchange for Neptune and Noire agreeing to do something for her. Neptune and Noire successfully become CPUs and take down Arfoire easily. Arfoire swears to get revenge and flees afterward. The girls head back to the Basilicom where it is revelead that Neptune had been telling the truth all along. The Hyperdimension Histoire is unable to immediately provide a solution as to how Neptune get home which results in Neptune being stuck in the Ultradimension until further notice. Now being a CPU, Noire goes out to found her own nation while Neptune stays with Plutia in Planeptune.
Three years have passed in the Ultradimenson. Noire has fonded Lastation and has taken a considerable amount of shares from Lowee, which ultimately causes bad blood between the two nations. Histoire kicks Neptune and Plutia out of the Basilicom so that they can visit Noire in Lastation and learn how to work like proper CPUs. Noire teaches them how to use the Scout System and the two head back to tell Histoire about it. However, since they didn't learn anything else, she sends them right back to Lastation.
An Enraged Blanc comes to Lastation to confront Noire, Neptune, and Plutia even though she has no real reason for being there. In order to prevent the CPUs from fighting and possibly starting a war, the Seven Sages send Copypaste and Pirachu to a Lastation factory to destroy it so that Noire's attention will be taken away from Blanc. Noire, Neptune, and Plutia make their way to the factory to deal with the threat, but not without Noire telling Blanc not to cause anymore trouble beforehand. Copypaste and Pirachu trick Noire into believing that Blanc was only in Lastation to serve as a distraction so that the Sages could destroy the factory. This leads to her assuming that Blanc is working with the Seven Sages while Neptune believes otherwise.
Neptune and Plutia return to the Planeptune Basilicom and receive contact from Histoire in the Hyperdimension. It is established that for every day that passes in the Hyperdimension, a year passes in the Ultradimension. In order for Neptune to return home, Histoire states that she must increase Planeptune's shares. After this, the connection is severed.
Noire comes to the Planeptune Basilicom to complain about Lowee and the Seven Sages. Plutia grows irritated of Noire's complaints and transforms, giving her a “lecture” to convince her to go to Lowee and voice her complaints directly to the CPU. After Noire gets out of her traumatized state, she, Neptune, and Plutia head to Lowee by running past the border patrol unit. When in Lowee Plutia, who is lost, bumps into Vert. When Neptune and Noire finally locate Plutia, Neptune nearly exposes Vert's identity as the CPU of Leanbox until Vert tells her to keep it a secret.
The girls, along with Vert, make their way to Lowee Basilicom where they are met with Blanc, Mr. Badd, Abnes, and Pirachu. It is revealed that their fight will be broadcast live on TV so that everyone can see Blanc defeat the other CPUs. Vert quickly makes her getaway due to not wanting to be seen on TV. The remaining CPUs face off against Blanc, ultimately winning. This plays directly into the Seven Sages plans as they never expected her to win in the first place. With Blanc's defeat broadcast live to her entire nation, she suffers an extreme decrease in shares. Mr. Badd uses this to take over her nation while imprisoning Blanc and the others due to them being too weak to fight back.
While locked up, they all agree to help Blanc get her nation back and Vert arrives to unlock the holding cell before leaving. Now being free, the party makes their move to stop Mr. Badd by broadcasting his defeat live during is speech. When they all transform to prepare for battle, Blanc is the only one who cannot due to not having enough faith. Neptune, Noire, and Plutia give Blanc their own faith which is just enough for her to transform. Together, the four CPUs take down Mr. Badd and have him expose his evil deeds live on television. After that, Blanc thanks Neptune and Plutia for their help, not wanting to thank Noire for being so rude to her beforehand. Blanc says that maybe she'll come to Planeptune to see Plutia after she's finished restoring her nation, and Neptune, Plutia, and Noire all head home.
In Planeptune, Neptune and Noire arrive together after spending time together for two weeks in Lastation. Blanc arrives as well and she and Noire instantly begin to fight. Neptune quells the argument by telling them that if they fight in the middle of the street then Plutia will see and they may be faced with Iris Heart. Not wanting to deal with Plutia's sadistic goddess form, they immediately stop and head to the Basilicom together. Upon entering the Basilicom they are greeted by Plutia and a group of babies. Initially they don't question why the babies are there but when they do they quickly begin to question Plutia. Histoire appears and explains that due to the missing children cases in Planeptune that the Basilicom is acting as a daycare. Not wanting to have anything to do with children, Noire and Blanc attempt to leave. However, when Plutia says she might end up transforming because taking care of them all alone is, they stay.
Histoire comes back with news of Leanbox declaring war against the other three nations and also with news of the other Histoire having finally found a way to bring Neptune back. The group heads to courtyard where Histoire opens the path back to the Hyperdimension. Before Neptune can even walk through, Nepgear gets dragged into the portal and ends up landing on the Ultradimension Noire. With both Neptune and Nepgear in the other dimension, the Hyperdimension Planeptune is at even higher risk of losing more shares. In order to reopen the path yet again, Histoire requests for Neptune and Nepgear to gain even more shares in the Ultradimension Planeptune before disconnecting.
Neptune and the others head for Leanbox to meet with the CPU and leave Nepgear to take care of the children. They travel to Leanbox by using a boat that was prepared by Vert. Upon arriving they head to the Leanbox Basilicom where Vert declares war, not with violence, but rather by taking all their shares the fair way with her superior console. Not threatened by her claims, Neptune and the others all return home.
A week later, Vert storms into the Planeptune Basilicom accusing the other CPUs of spreading false negative rumors about her console. When Neptune and the others explain that they didn't do anything and that people genuinely think her console isn't all that great, Vert challenges the other CPUs to battle in the place where she found her CPU Memory. Neptune thinks this is a good opportunity to try and get any spare CPU Memories Vert may have for Nepgear and decides to go with the others.
When they arrive, Neptune and Plutia explain the situation to Vert and Nepgear manages to receive a CPU Memory so she can become a goddess again. Vert then tricks Nepgear into believing she is her sister due to them using a CPU Memory from the same core. Neptune and the others face off against both Vert and Nepgear and ultimately win. After this, a Leanbox soldier arrives and tells Vert that Seven Sages are wreaking havoc in Leanbox. Due to Vert being injured from her fight against the other CPUs, Neptune and the others offer their help in defeating the threat.
The group heads to Leanbox where the find both Arfoire and Copypaste destroying the city. The CPUs make quick work of the two but are unable to catch them after they flee. Vert formally thanks Neptune and the others for their help and says she will repay the debt she owes after focusing on her nation for bit. In the conclusion of the chapter, it is revealed that Vert sneaks into the Planeptune Basilicom every day to see Nepgear and that the Basilicom in general has become a hangout spot for all the CPUs.
In Planeptune's Basilicom, Noire, Blanc, and Vert receive calls about trouble brewing in each of their nations. The three of them immediately leave to deal with the trouble in their own lands. While initially Neptune wanted to let them deal with their own problems, she is convinced by Histoire, Plutia, and Nepgear to go and assist the other nations.
In Lastation, the three Planeptune goddesses make their way into Noire's Basilicom to see how she's doing. Nepgear finds a camera hidden in her room and comes to the conclusion that someone is taping her. She uses a special device to track where the data is being sent to which leads them to Anonydeath. Noire, Neptune, Nepgear, and Plutia all transform and face off against Anonydeath. Once he is defeated, they are all tricked by him which allows him to escape without a hitch.
When Neptune, Nepgear, and Plutia head to Lowee they go to the Basilicom and see that things are going better than expected. Blanc explains that the damage was minimal and that Copypaste was destroying her Basilicom before she came back but ended up working at the Mines when he learned he could destroy as much as he wanted. Ever since, Mining has been going exceedingly well. However, Blanc is still upset at what he did to the Basilicom and so she and the others head to the Mines to see Copypaste. When they arrive they see that all the mine workers love him and when they beat him up they show some resentment towards Blanc. The moment they see this, Neptune and the other two Planeptune goddesses make a run for it and leave Blanc to deal with the situation herself.
Upon arriving in Leanbox, Neptune, Nepgear, and Plutia are faced with a strange looking creature. Suddenly, Green Heart appears and asks for their help in defeating the strange monster but they fail in actually stopping it. The girls are initially hesitant to help Vert deal with monsters due to how disgusting they were but Vert manages to convince them to help by saying more might spawn in Planeptune if they don't deal with threat now. They follow the creature all the way back to Mr. Badd who is revealed to be the culprit behind the strange creatures' appearance in Leanbox. They end up fighting both Mr. Badd and his three strange creatures. When they defeat them, Mr. Badd and the creatures escape.
Neptune, Nepgear, Plutia, and the other CPUs all rendezvous back at the Planeptune Basilicom where they find Histoire stuffed in the trash and trapped between her book. When they get her our she explains that the Seven Sages have kidnapped Peashy, IF, and Compa and says that they are taking a road towards Lowee. After hearing this, Neptune and the rest of the group immediately head out to save them.
When the group returns to the Planeptune Basilicom after being unable to find Peashy but able to get back IF and Compa they are greeted by both her and Histoire. Peashy explains that the lady who took her offered her candy but when she didn't get any she got bored and left. This relieves everyone and with the crisis finally resolved, the group assembles a sleepover in the Planeptune Basilicom.
In the Planeptune Basilicom, the goddesses are having a meeting. Nepgear explains that they had recently been contacted by the Histoire of the Hyperdimension and that the situation in their dimension was getting worse. Neptune requests the help of the other CPUs to increase their shares. While initially they are hesitant on the idea, everyone decides to pitch in and help increase Planeptune's shares so Neptune and Nepgear can return home.
Anonydeath visits the Basilicom posing as Peashy's father. The CPUs are shocked when they hear this and express immediate distaste towards his supposed reasons for abandoning Peashy in the Basilicom all those years ago. Neptune and Peashy get into an argument and Peashy leaves with Anonydeath, still upset at Neptune for being mean to her “dad.”
Abnes visits the Basilicom to request the CPUs' aid in freeing the abducted children. Reluctant at trusting her at first, Neptune and the others take her word for it and head to where the captured children are located. However, when they arrive they learn that the strange monsters from Leanbox before are actually children who had a CPU Memory forced on them. This leaves Neptune and the others with no other choice but to flee, since they do not wish to harm the children.
Once they exit the base, they are encountered by another CPU who claims to go by the name of Yellow Heart. She attacks the group and despite their efforts she easily defeats them all, being powerful enough to knock them all out of goddess form. She flies away shortly after this and the CPUs, defeated, return to the Basilicom where they see a broadcast on television declaring the founding a new nation known as Eden lead by Yellow Heart.
Ten years have passed since the creation of Eden and each of the nations have suffered a major decrease in shares. The group meets in Lowee's Basilicom to discuss what they can possibly do to combat this situation but none of them have any ideas. Copypaste, who has been rebuilt to serve as the tea server in the Basilicom, notifies them of the Seven Sages stirring up trouble outside of town. The CPUs act with haste to go deal with situation. They make their way outside of town and see some weak monsters and not any real threat. The party deals with this swiftly and all end up going to Planeptune's Basilicom after.
In Planeptune, Neptune and the others arrive and eat a meal prepared by Compa. They then head out to help with gathering information on the newly formed nation of Eden. However, while they're doing this, IF is kidnapped by Arfoire and they're forced to go save her.
When they arrive and find Arfoire and Pirachu with the captured IF, Pirachu convinces Arfoire to run while he buys her time. The CPUs are stricken with awe at Pirachu's display of friendship and have no intentions of actually fighting him until Plutia transforms which ultimately forces them to battle him as well.
After being defeated by the CPUs, Pirachu is taken back to the Planeptune Basilicom and is nursed back to health by Compa. The CPUs interrogate him on information about Yellow Heart which he is hesitant to give until Compa begs him to help them out. They then learn of how Yellow Heart gets her strength. Neptune and the others deduce that by destroying the machine that gives her the power boost Yellow Heart will be as strong as a normal CPU.
Neptune and friends head to Anonydeath's lab where the confront him head on. Despite his efforts to stall, the CPUs all transform and make quick work of him and destroy the machine after. Yellow Heart arrives on the scene, unaware that the source of her power is now gone, fights the CPUs to defend Anonydeath. Upon her defeat she reverts back to human form, revealing herself to have been Peashy all along but she doesn't remember any of them.
When Peashy shows signs of remembering Neptune and the others, Anonydeath tricks them into thinking the building will blow in one minute which forces them to run. They fail to realize they've been tricked until much later. Neptune, upset at the discovery of Yellow Heart being Peashy and her memories being altered, vows to get her back.
Normal Route
The CPUs assemble Abnes, Copypaste, and Pirachu at the Planeptune Basilicom to learn the location of the Seven Sages' main base of operations. Vert states that the matter of restoring Peashy's memory lies with with Neptune and Plutia. Neptune says whatever happens, happens and Nepgear concludes she has no basis whatsoever. In the end they just decide to beat her up and hope she remembers that way.
When they head to Seven Sages' base and find Peashy, they try to make her remember using force but it doesn't workout. When she reverts to human form and begins to cry, Neptune and the others take her back to the Basilicom where she continues to throw tantrums for several days before calming down.
Afterwards, things returned to normal, but Peashy still didn't remember them. Instead of returning home like they were supposed to, Neptune and Nepgear refuse to leave the Ultradimension until they are able to restore Peashy's memory.
Good/True Route
The CPUs assemble Abnes, Copypaste, and Pirachu at the Planeptune Basilicom to learn the location of the Seven Sages' main base of operations. Neptune says she has top secret plan to help Peashy recover her memories and Compa and IF request to go rescue Peashy as well, promising they won't hold them back. Neptune and Plutia agree and with that settled they head out to save Peashy
As She arrives to the Seven Sages' base she encounters Mister Badd and his "daughters." After dealing with them and deciding to help him on his mission to restore the girls to their normal forms, they continue their search for Peashy.
When Neptune and the others find Peashy they try to remind her of her childhood at the Basilicom to help restore her memory, but it doesn't work. Neptune transforms into Purple Heart and says that they need to weaken her so that their plan to restore her memory will be more effective.
After defeating Yellow Heart, she reverts back to her human form. Neptune and Plutia also revert back and go through with what they planned. They initiate the five-item set plan that contains five key items from Peashy's time in the Basilicom. Their plan fully works when Neptune shows Peashy the picture she drew of everyone living in the Basilicom, fully jogging her memory. Cheerfully, Peashy headbutts Neptune and everyone welcomes her back.
Neptune's party returns to the Planeptune Basilicom with Peashy and Histoire welcomes her back. The group decides to take a break and relax, discussing what will happen next. With the Seven Sages gone and Eden no longer a threat due to Peashy being back with then, they no longer have anything of major importance to do. Neptune and the others decide to head out to do some work, inviting Peashy to come with them.
A Purple Heart clone arrives to the Planeptune Basilicom when everyone is there and begins to stir up trouble. They quickly defeat her and begin to ponder on where the clone came from. Neptune deduces that Rei Ryghts is possibly behind it, due to the one of her world possibly being the reason she was sent in to the Ultradimension in the first place. They decide to ask the former members of the Seven Sages for information regarding Rei.
They gather the former Seven Sages in the Lastation Basilicom and ask them if Rei has any powers that she would use for evil. Each of them respond negatively. However, Anonydeath contacts them and informs them that Neptune's gut feeling is actually accurate. He states that Rei is using him as CPU bait to lure them to her.
When they arrive to where Rei is, they save Anonydeath and also deal with clones of the other CPUs (excluding Plutia). When Neptune's party finally reaches Rei and are greeted by her psychotic rambling. They all transform, ready to deal with her only for Rei to transform as well and reveal her goddess form. When they defeat her she immediately reverts back to her human form and faints. They are surprised to see that she was able to transform just like them. The party decides to take her back with them for an interrogation.
When Rei awakens, Neptune and the other immediately ask her about her ability to transform. They learn that she is in fact a CPU, but from a very long time ago. As they are learning about Rei's past, Croire arrives and tells them that the other Rei is going to destroy the world, and takes her leave right as it starts.
The CPUs make haste in returning to their own nations to lead their people to safety. When they return to the Planeptune Basilicom, the Histoire in the Hyperdimension contacts them and tells Neptune and Nepgear to hurry home as the situation has gotten worse.
Good Route
When preparations are complete Histoire proceeds in opening the path, telling them to imagine releasing all the shares they have gathered so far. She is surprised to see that there are so many shares and says they will definitely succeed. When the path is opened, Neptune and Nepgear say their final farewells to the others. Just as they are about to leave, Plutia tackle-hugs Neptune which results in them both falling through the light and leaving Nepgear behind.
Once Neptune and Plutia arrive to the Hyperdimension, they are met with Uni, Rom, and Ram who are expecting to see Nepgear but end up heavily disappointed. Histoire arrives not too long after and explains the situation to them, saying that Planeptune has taken major damage and that the other CPUs have gone ahead to deal with the matter.
Upon arriving to the City Center, Neptune tells Plutia to transform and break the Candidates in so they won't freeze from shock during battle when they see Iris Heart. Plutia heeds Neptune's words and does just as suggested which leaves the candidates traumatized after.
Just as they make it to Rei, they see the Hyperdimension CPUs have been defeated by her. Neptune and the others are upset by this and transform ready to fight her despite Rei's overconfidence. With the candidates help, Neptune and Plutia defeat Rei. However, Rei gives her dark power over to Croire to take away. When Croire is asked by Neptune what she plans to do with that dark power, she states that she's going to another dimension where they don't exist, and then leaves.
This resolution leaves both Neptune and Plutia unsatisfied. A few years have passed in the Ultradimension and Nepgear is still stuck. She yells at Neptune and Plutia during a call between the two Histoire's trying to tell her that even though its been a few days for them in the Hyperdimension, it's been years for her. Neptune says that Nepgear's seems to really be suffering over there and asks Plutia if she wants to start working for real. Plutia answers by saying maybe after another nap, which makes Nepgear yell at them again to bring her home.
True Route
When preparations are complete Histoire proceeds in opening the path, telling them to imagine releasing all the shares they have gathered so far. She is surprised to see that there are so many shares and says they will definitely succeed. When the path is opened, everyone is shocked to see how huge it is. Hyper-Histoire concludes that with the path this size, everyone can travel to and from the dimensions as they please. They leave their nations in the care of the Compa, IF, and the Seven Sages while they go to the Hyperdimension to deal with Rei.
The party then heads through the path and ends up in the Hyperdimension. Neptune and the others head to the Planeptune Basilicom to receive a summary on current situation from Histoire. After learning what they needed to know, Neptune's party and the newly added candidates head to the City Center to fight Rei.
Neptune her party pass by the Hyperdimension Noire, Vert, and Blanc who are helping the Planeptune citizens escape while fighting off the clones so that Neptune's group can go ahead. As they face off against Rei, they find themselves tired out due to her strength. Suddenly the Rei from the Ultradimension arrives and tries to help but only ends up making things worse when Croire takes Ultra-Rei's power and gives it to Hyper-Rei.
The CPUs are forced to face Rei for a second time and after defeating her the dark power comes out. Due to the efforts of Iris Heart and Ultra-Rei splitting the power between them, they are able to finally stop Hyper-Rei, thus saving both worlds.
Three months pass and both worlds go back to being peaceful, however the pathway between the dimensions seems to be open forever. Neptune and Plutia visit each other frequently, and Plutia ends up inviting Neptune over to show her a surprise. Neptune, Plutia, Compa, and IF end up being trapped in the enormous amount dolls that Plutia had made of all her friends and Peashy and Nepgear show up in the middle of it. The story ends with Croire being captured by an unknown individual who sounds like a much younger Neptune.
Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth3: V Generation
The events in Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth3 mirror Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory with the exception of meeting some of the DLC makers, prologue and extra chapter. In addition, due to fan backlash, she treats Nepgear much better.
Prologue
During the prologue, after Neptune is defeated in a game by the other goddesses teaming up on her, her game stops working. Nepgear has recently designed the Nepulus Grift and sends Neptune into the game. She finds sentient viruses destroying her game which enrages her due to the fact she saved up a unspecified long amount of time of her allowance to purchase the console and her game.
At the end of the dungeon she runs into the virus, takes down all of the virus' monsters, forcing the it to leave. However, her game is corrupt and no longer working. While upset at this, she is still cheerful that her data was saved.
Extra
Neptune and the candidates returns to play with Plutia and Peashy after a month has passed of not doing so. However, she finds the citizens of the Ultra Dimension are glued to their phone tapping away, spending large amounts of money and muttering weird things. To top it all off, all the stores are closed. Plutia and Peashy and explain that they are in a bit of a crisis and bring the guests to the Basilicom.
Apparently, a month ago, all gaming software broke and as a result mobile games unregulated by the goddesses and designed by a certain duo were able to rise. The problem, however lies in the fact the mobile games are won by money not player skill. If the situation continues, the Ultra Dimension goddesses will lose their shares.
Neptune thinks that the two events are connected, since the timing of the mobile games is too convenient when the software broke, and suggests to attack the developers. The Ultradimension goddesses agree with Neptune, but cannot attack them as they have no solid proof.
Bamo and Regu, the duo unregulated developers show up to declare war on the Goddesses. They wish to change Gamindustri in Sociomobilindustri. They also confirm that they were responsible for the stopping the games from working.
Neptune remembers Bamo as the virus that attacked her in the beginning of the game. Afterwards, the Goddesses decide to investigate more into the two and how they were able to enter games in general. During the investigation, Neptune, Rom and Ram find a man totally stuck and his phone and all attempts to talk with him failed, with man annoyed with the girls.
When the goddesses meet up, they discuss their findings of which Neptune spawns an idea, create better mobile games than Bamo and Regu. The idea works forcing Bamo and Regu to turn up their mind-control spell. This forces the Goddesses to track them down to the place where Tari once stood. Neptune tries to explain that making citizens into mindless micro-transaction zombies and ruling that kind of nation will make a boring world and that they should give up. The two refuse and send a horde of monsters before retreating into a game, which the Goddesses are able to follow thanks to the Nepulus Grift.
Blanc explains the duo developers were using an OOPart to control their citizens into wasting money on their games. Eventually they finally corner Bamo and Regu. The two use an OOPart to power up and fight the goddesses and lose. Afterwards, the goddesses are unsure of what to do with the two developers after they provide a honest backstory. Plutia comes up with the idea of exiling them to the southern areas, and Neptune is surprised to see Plutia come up with such an idea. With that, the crisis in the Ultradimension Gamindustri is settled.
Megadimension Neptunia VII
Zero Dimension Neptunia Z: Twilight of the Desperate CPU
Neptune begins her day like all others, avoiding working and playing around. During which she notices a strange console with an orange swirly mark. Since no one is around, she decides to take it to the Basilicom. Histoire scolds Neptune for not doing her work, reminding her that Gamindustri is in the CPU Shift period. There will be lots of rumors slandering the CPUs and citizens may place their faith elsewhere. All other CPUs have already prepared for this with the exception of Neptune herself.
Neptune ignores her warning, being more interested in the console, and she wants to play on it with her sister, Nepgear. Once the console is turned on, both Neptune and Nepgear are sucked into a portal.
Neptune and Nepgear wake up in an unfamiliar land, largely in ruins, with the skies and buildings cracked as if something damaged the space itself. Nepgear notes its similarity to Planeptune but Neptune assures her as CPU, there is no way the city could be Planeptune as she does not recognize the buildings.
They decide to explore the ruins to look for any form of life. They run into some monsters. They decide to use their HDD to make quick work of them only to find that they cannot use HDD. The girls have no connections to their shares.
Eventually they run into Uzume Tennouboshi, who assumes Neptune is a villain under her enemy. Neptune and Uzume clash a little until Nepgear stops the fight. Neptune decides to help Uzume, who is fighting a bunch of monsters to buy time for an evacuation.
Suddenly, her enemy, Dark Purple appears and starts destroying the land. Uzume intends to fight the giant and Neptune decides to support her despite the risk as her duty as a CPU. But first, Neptune convinces Uzume to rest and they the three return to Uzume's base. Neptune is excited to see such a cool base having the bare minimum to sustain Uzume's resistance against Dark Purple.
Uzume briefs the girls on the situation. There are no humans, so there are no shares. She is assisting monsters in surviving against Dark Purple and that is a losing battle. Uzume has a plan to defeat Dark Purple but it takes time to be fully prepared.
The three girls hold off a horde of monsters to assist Uzume and her partner with an evacuation. During which Uzume gives Neptune her nickname "Nepsy". Uzume also reveals that she can transform with the use of share crystals. With her transformation, and the Planeptune sister's help they are able to make a particularly strong monster flee.
Afterwards, Dark Purple launches a sneak attack on Neptune and Uzume. The girls are already tired from holding off the monster horde. Uzume decides to stand and fight against Dark Purple. Neptune, however has other plans and she gets her sister to drag Uzume out of the fight.
Afterwards the girls retreat to the base. Uzume learns that Neptune is also a CPU. Additionally Neptune explains to Uzume, she is from Planeptune which makes Uzume uneasy. Neptune also addresses Nepgear's worry about what the destroyed city is. However, Uzume does not know and she has no recollection of anything before the carnage of the Dark CPUs.
The girls think they are in another continient and Uzume wants to help the sisters home. Neptune worries about leaving Uzume alone to fight against Dark Purple. Nepgear solves this by asking Uzume to help them get home by destroying Dark Purple who may attack them on the way home. Uzume agrees. The girls then have a shower and rest for the night.
The next day, Neptune decides to assist Uzume with some patrolling. During which Uzume gets a distress call from her partner Umio. The girls rush to a nearby town and have trouble looking for him. During which Uzume's personality flips as she has a daydream about one of her monster friends coming in to lead them to Umio.
That events comes to fruition after the daydream shocking Neptune and Nepgear. A Baby Bug comes to aid the girls to Umio. Inside the town, Neptune notices how tasty looking the Baby Bug looks. She decides to call her "Fried Shrimp". Uzume joins in the teasing so Nepgear steps in and assures the two won't do that anymore. Eventually the girls run to a whole bunch of doggos and baby bugs.
They continue to point the way to Umio who lured the monsters away. They defeat the monsters harassing Umio and Neptune is surprised to find him a fish. Uzume however, finds him adorable. Umio thanks the girls for saving him, but the strong monster they fought the other day returns for a second fight. The girls finish it off and return to base with a share crystal that Umio found.
When they return to base, Nepgear cooks up a meal for the group. Umio also suggests that instead of a continent, the sisters are likely from another dimension. After the dinner, Uzume falls asleep, and Neptune asks about Uzume's shift in personality. Umio explains that her carefree daydream personality is her real personality. Her obsession with being cool must have been a result of her putting associating being cool with being reliable. After that the group goes to bed.
The next day Neptune wakes up to complain heavily about the lack of pudding. Eventually Neptune's complaints get Uzume thinking about trying to get some pudding as well. Neptune encourages her and Uzume slips back to her daydream personality and desire pudding. So the two decide to go look for some pudding ingredients.
They return with the ingredients despite the fact that groceries stores should be out of commission. Apprently monsters peddlers have started to set up shop. With the ingredients, Nepgear and Uzume prepare the pudding. Neptune and Umio decide to invite the monster allies over for some pudding. After their pudding snack, Umio explains the plan to create a barrier of share energy to stop the Dark CPU. They have also recently discover another location for share crystals and the group heads over to it.
Near the share crystal, the scenery is a lot less bleak than the rest of the world. Umio explains that it is the result of the share crystal and that they should not remove too many crystals to keep the place nice. Umio suspects that the world is dying because Uzume has not been accepted as the CPU of the world yet, so she has to rely on share crystal instead of faith from the inhabitants. He dubs this dimension the Zero Dimension. Uzume says she would fight on regardless and Neptune breaks the severity of the "end-of-the-world" mood by suggesting that they can have a picnic here.
A group of Dogoo lead by a Dogoo named Goobs helps the group search for the share crystal. His group manage to find the crystal and reports to Uzume. Nepgear comments that it is nice that Uzume can use share crystals to transform. Uzume wonders if she can grind the share crystal into powder with pudding for the sisters to transform. She gets into her daydream personality, hoping that she can see Neptune and Nepgear transform with her. Umio favors the thought as well and the group heads out to find the crystal.
Eventually they find it and Arfoire unleashes Dark Purple at them. Uzume is confident in their chances and is about to use the crystal but Arfoire destroys it. Arfoire then introduces herself much to the annoyance of Neptune. Dark Purple unleashes a large volley of attacks. Uzume asks everyone to pull back but Neptune refuses as they are friends.
The Dogoos then give their faith to Neptune and Nepgear allowing the two to use HDD. Uzume encouraged by this also transforms and creates a sharing field to encapsulate Dark Purple. The CPUs defeat Dark Purple and force Arfoire to retreat. With that the group goes home.
Uzume goes away to take a shower and Umio explains that Uzume has the ability to turn her dreams to reality. Neptune catches that Umio was encouraging her in the thought of the girls transforming. Umio remarks that Neptune is sharp. Nevertheless, they are now able to get share energy from monsters and Dark Purple is defeated.
Privately, after the battle when the girls return to Uzume's base, Umio explains Uzume has the power to turn her daydreams into her reality. Due to Neptune's friendly attitude and encouragement, Uzume was able to believe she can get shares from monsters. The consequence of this is that Uzume can effectively defend her monsters and possibly restore the world.
Later Neptune asks Uzume's long term plans are and if she would like to return with Neptune to co-rule Planeptune with her. She refuses desiring to restore the Zero Dimension. She wants to create a nation that can rival Planeptune. Neptune understands and hopes that she can succeed.
A few days have passed with Neptune and Uzume feeling rather lazy. Umio said he wants Nepgear to follow him to some place he found. Since the two have nothing better to do, they also follow him. They find a room with a transporter. Unfortunately it is not capable of inter-dimensional travel. Regardless, Nepgear connects her N-Gear into a terminal.
The N-Gear rings and it is Histoire. She is glad to have been able to contact them and Neptune introduces her to Uzume and Umio. She thanks them for their assistance. Histoire then mentions the sisters can return with the use of the N-Gear, a transport terminal and a bunch of shares meaning Neptune has to work a lot when she returns. Neptune loses her motivation to return but Nepgear promises to assist her in regathering share so she can. However, it looks like Histoire cannot bring them back.
After a quick diagnosis, it looks like the terminal is busted. Nepgear decides to start fixing it and the group will recontact Histoire when everything is working again. After hours of attempting to fix it, she comes across two problems. They lack power and a major component is corroded. The group decides to tackle the corroded component part first and look around the city for a replacement.
They are not having much luck and Neptune sees her sister rather distressed. Neptune says she would be happy if they can find a world destroying robot for her to dissect. However as that is hard to find instead Neptune, Uzume and Umio decide to take Nepgear into an arcade to relax. However the arcade in the city is busted. Fried Shrimp arrives to lead them to a better arcade.
When they arrive, the arcade is under attack by ferocious monsters. A Hell's Crest asks the girls for their assistance and in return they will let the girls play the best games. Once they clear the monsters, they get to play a few games. After the games Nepgear looks a lot happier so Neptune feels she did a good job.
A security robot then attacks them. The girls defeat it and Neptune gives Nepgear permission to dissect the robot. She finds the replacement they need and are one step closer to returning home.
Nepgear contacts Histoire as the terminal is repaired. Neptune expresses her desire to stay due to not wanting to have Histoire lecture her. Histoire suggests that Neptune can stay and Nepgear can go back home and take her place as CPU. Neptune apologizes. Uzume then offers a share crystal to act as a power supply for the terminal as thanks for everything.
Nepgear actually wants to stay to help Uzume and once everything is solved, Uzume can return with them. Uzume refuses and tries to explain her motives. However, Arfoire launches an attack at the facility.
Neptune expresses her annoyance at Arfoire then makes a joke at her expense. This enrages Arfoire and she orders her horde of monsters to attack. The girls are starting to get overwhelmed and retreat to the facility. Uzume decides to help the sisters return home and she promises to escape once that is done. However, Arfoire reaches the transport room and attacks Uzume. Nepgear leaves the terminal to help Uzume and Neptune is transferred back to the Hyper Dimension.
Once Neptune returns, she notices Histoire is unconscious and she makes a scene about it. Histoires states she has done a task well beyond her specifications. IF arrives and Neptune asks her for assistance. The two bring Histoire to a room to rest in. They contact Compa who says she probably cannot use her nursing skills to help someone like Histoire. She wonders if there is a manual of some sort to troubleshoot her. Neptune notes that there is.
The girls learn that Histoire has merely short circuited. If they can get Sanshiro's Soulful Patch, she will be fine. IF and Compa entrust Neptune with the task as they have to watch over the Basilicom and Histoire. Neptune is unsure with herself but Noire and Uni arrive to help her out. Neptune teases Noire as Noire chases her around. Noire bumps into a girl and Neptune scolds her for it. Noire apologizes and blames Neptune for the incident. Uni gets the two back on track and they plan to look for clues for 2 hours.
Neptune decides to contact Blanc for some help. She suggests looking up some books. Neptune thanks her for the tip and goes into a supermarket to look for some books. She notices a woman by the cashier and a robot in the book section. Neptune purchases some books and candy and leaves to read up on them. Neptune also meets up with a man who was losing faith in Neptune as a result of the rumors of the CPU Shift Period. Neptune manages to convince him otherwise.
She cannot find anything of value and leaves a book behind when Noire returns and regroup in a hotel. The CPUs have found nothing of value with the exception of Vert. According to her gaming buddy who is also a professor, there is a sanctuary for the first CPU. Perhaps in there, something can be found. The CPUs are unable to go with Neptune to the sacred site as they need to deal with the rumors and problems caused by the CPU Shift Period.
Neptune goes the sacred shrine, beats up a boss and finds a box containing the first CPU's favorite items. In it, is the cartidge, Sanshiro's Soulful Patch. She returns to the Basilicom and puts the cartidge's in Histoire's mouth who starts rebooting and repairing.
Neptune is contacted by Nepgear and Uzume. She updates her sister on Histoire and everything that has happened in the Hyper Dimension. Neptune promises her sister that she is working on a way to get her back. Nepgear then updates her on Arfoire's defeat and how there is another Neptune who helped them. Neptune congratulates her sister and wishes to meet her counterpart who unfortunately is on a walk. IF then calls her over so Neptune hangs up.
Neptune reappears in the climatic fight between her Uzume, her counterpart and her sister against an Arfoire fused with Dark Purple. She and Histoire lends Planeptune's shares to her sister. With all the share energy from all the monster allies of the Zero Dimension and Planeptune, Uzume is able to create a sharing field around Arfoire. Neptune then arrives from the sharing field ready for an all out final battle. The girls fight and defeat the fused Arfoire causing her Dark Purple body to collapse.
Next Neptune starts chatting up with her counterpart. She is glad that she gets more developed when she gets older. Her counterpart just loves how adorable her smaller self looks. Uzume is about to deactivate the sharing field but Neptune tells her to stop as they need the large amount of shares from the field to return home. With that Neptune urges Nepgear to hurry up home even if she wants to chat some more. Neptune does notice Croire in her weakened state. She wonders if Croire has learned her lesson about creating trouble.
Croire said she did nothing wrong. Neptune wonders if she should punish Croire. Croire refuses to be punished by her and flees into the portal created by the shares. The older Neptune runs off after her. Neptune and Nepgear then return home with the Zero Dimension saved.
Hyper Dimension Neptunia G: The Golden Leaders, Reconstructors of Gamindustri
A few days have passed since the adventures of the Zero Dimension. Neptune is struggling to deal with the CPU Shift Period and the Planeptune sisters want to thank everyone for their hard work, as well as Neptune has a plan on how to go through this period. The sisters invites the CPUs and their candidates over for a tea party. The CPUs and candidates show up mostly because the CPUs need to vent out their fustration over the CPU Shift Period. Neptune complains about how the rumors state that she pushes all her work to Nepgear and Histoire so that she can go out to play. The other CPUs wonder if she was joking considering that she actually does that.
Vert wonders if it is just the work of pranksters or the work of an organized group trying to bring ruin to Gamindustri. Regardless, the CPUs then remember that Neptune had a plan and gathered up for that reason. Neptune forgot about that purposes but does remember the plan. The plan is to host a multinational magnificent festival for everyone to have fun.
During the festival, the rumors stop affecting the nations as much and shares are recovered. In this festival is a battle tournament which Neptune and the other goddesses qualify for a battle royale. Before the group clash, they are stopped by a mysterious group. The goddesses are quickly defeated by them. Neptune notices her older self right before the rewrite in Gamindustri.
Planeptune
Neptune decides to check out the Golden Summits as they just recently appeared. As she is unable to open it, she scales the summit. IF is wandering by and Neptune falls down from the summit. Neptune warns IF and she evades Neptune much to her displeasure. Neptune is glad to see IF, and notes that it is like the first they met, her falling from the True Neptral Tower right beside her.
However, IF does not remember Neptune. Neptune wonders if she is mad at her but eventually discovers that IF has forgotten her. IF wonders if she saw an old lady but Neptune did not. IF worries about Neptune's injuries and brings her to Planeptune as she was planning to head to the Basilicom.
In Planeptune she discovers that she cannot contact the other CPUs and that Noire has been arrested. Neptune remarks, while Noire is self-important, a giant tsundere, not honest about Uni, faked her information to debut as a voice actress and overall group, a girl in cute clothes and pigtails can't be a criminal. She finds it weird that Uni is not caught as well. In Planeptune, she finds out everyone has forgotten her and follow Lady B-Sha. This hurts Neptune a lot.
She eventually makes her way into the Basilicom. The staff also do not remember and find her annoying. They try to kick her out but the noise Neptune makes attracts Histoire. She tells them to let her go. Histoire then explains the situation to Neptune.
Gamindustri's history has been rewritten. Gold Third rules and not the CPUs. Many factions are taking advantage of this to create more conflict. More monsters have shown up and current monster can sometimes be mutated to more violent monsters known as "delusionary" monsters. Worst of all, is an organization selling technology and business information and selling it. Neptune asks if it is AffimaX. Histoire confirms and asks how Neptune acquired the knowledge. Neptune explains she found it from N-Chan. Neptune also comments that with the state of the Gamindustri, it turns out people that said CPUs were useless were wrong as during their rule, none of these issues existed. Histoire agrees that the CPUs' reign were the most peaceful times in Gamindustri.
With all that occurring, Histoire orders her to fulfill her duties as CPUs and solve this crisis since B-Sha is not available. Neptune decides the best course of action is to follow IF and heads off. Neptune finds IF who refuses to let Neptune follow her. She does ask Neptune for her name, but Neptune was hoping IF would remember her nickname. Regardless Neptune tags along. IF eventually catches her and pushes her home. Neptune agrees but is still secretly tagging her.
Eventually Neptune hears trouble. Arfoire has returned and has defeated IF. She attempts to force IF to summit to her and IF stubbornly refuses as she made a promise to someone she can't remember to keep Planeptune safe and prosperous. Arfoire decides to kill her then, but Neptune arrives to stop her. For doing something so stupid, IF calls her by her nickname "Nep" and with that Neptune is motivated enough to transform. Neptune wants to avenge IF and capture Arfoire as she was certain Arfoire was destroyed in the Zero Dimension. IF joins along as she can't let Neptune do something so stupid.
The pair come out victorious. IF wants to beat out some answers regarding Arfoire's burglary. Neptune tells her to watch out and blocks a ninja's attacks. The ninja helps Arfoire get away with a smokescreen. Arfoire releases a monster and it attempts an attack at Neptune. IF takes the blow and kills the monster. She is horribly wounded and Neptune uses her phone to call Compa, who actually remembers Neptune almost immediately. Neptune asks Compa's assistance in helping IF. Neptune rushes IF to the hospital in Planeptune. IF makes a quick recovery
Neptune, IF and Compa are happy to be together since preparing for the preparing for the festival and dealing with the events afterwards. They see a retro game shop and that excites Neptune. The girls enter the shop. The shop owner, Chuko welcomes them but apologizes as the shop is closed today. Someone stole everything in her store. IF asks if she has reported to the police. Chuko has, and IF promises the Basilicom will do their own investigation.
Compa asks why anyone would steal retro games. Neptune tells her it is because prices may increase ten-fold. Chuko says rare retro games go for 100 times the original price. Neptune then tells having lots of those rare games would attract people to her store because they would think she has a good line-up. Chuko compliments how sharp Neptune is. Compa is also impressed with Neptune's knowledge.
The girls leave the store and IF remarks what chaotic world this is. The other day, Leanbox is dealing with an unknown force invading them. Because of that transportation has been cut between the cities. Neptune worries about Vert.
Nepgear then arrives in Planeptune and Neptune is glad to see her sister again. Nepgear then reports on the status of the world, namely that Leanbox is dealing with the resurrection of a demon lord. Neptune worries about Vert and wants to help her but has to deal with Planeptune. Neptune decides to send Nepgear who agrees to the task. Shortly after Nepgear leaves, IF teases Neptune about Vert trying to steal Nepgear. Neptune then runs off to try to bring Nepgear back and fails.
IF gets a call regarding a recently opened up shop that is selling retro games. The Basilicom failed to apprehend the suspicious shop owner but notes the suspect is a rat. Warechu then shows up and bumps into Compa. IF quickly arrests him as he is the likely suspect for stealing from Chuko. He manages to escape however. Neptune and the girls chase him and sees him hitting a boy.
A masked hero, Presto Mask shows up and knocks Warechu out. Neptune is super impressed with that hero. The hero asks Neptune if she was pursuing the rat. Neptune says she was. The hero decides to charge Neptune 1000 credits but Neptune has no money. Neptune is shocked by this. IF also reveals to Neptune that Presto Mask is B-Sha. Neptune is surprised as she thought Presto Mask was a cyborg hero. IF notes that everyone in Planeptune already knew about this.
Compa wants to heal Warechu and bring him to the Basilicom. Neptune agrees to this as Warechu is not a stranger and he has a big information network. In the Basilicom, Warechu tells them that he is part of AffimaX, and so is Arfoire. He has no idea where she came from and that they are after some console with a swirl mark. Neptune wonders if it is the console, she found right before the events of the Zero Dimension but it cannot be.
B-Sha then calls the girls down so they throw Warechu into a jail cell. Histoire asks Neptune, IF, Compa and B-Sha to go to Haneda City and defeat the "delusionary" monsters plaguing the city. B-Sha wants to stay and worries about Planeptune. Histoire assures her that Planeptune is made to deal with long absences from their leaders. If it wasn't Planeptune should have imploded under Neptune.
The girls head out and they see a monsters attacking an old man. B-Sha then flees. The three decide to attack the monsters regardless and Neptune promises to make up the lost strength from B-Sha fleeing. They defeat the monsters and the old man remarks that seeing Neptune is quite nostalgic. The girls figure out that as they help more citizens, their memory of Neptune will resurface. The girls make to a guard who say they have cornered the boss monster in the center of the city and would appreciate some assistance in finishing it off. The trio rush to the center. The guards are doing horrible against the boss monster. The last two guards refuse to give up and must defend the city since Neptune is gone.
Neptune shows up to save them. She transforms and ask IF and Compa for assistance. The three defeat the monster and Neptune wonders how the two guards remember her. The guards explain they love their CPU and even if the world flips inside out they will remember her. The guards always wanted to help her. However, they failed the Basilicom test but took up guard duty instead. They are happy because of it they can see Neptune. The guards ask for a handshake and Neptune gives it to them. They return to the Basilicom and wonder about B-Sha fleeing.
Neptune, IF and Compa report the good news about Haneda City to Histoire and the fact that some guards remember Neptune. Histoire did not that there were others that can remember Neptune. They also tell her of B-Sha's desertion. Histoire has no idea about this since she was so eager. Neptune decides to find B-Sha on her own since she feels B-Sha is incredibly guilty. She finds her but B-Sha is tight lipped on why she ran away. Neptune promises she is not mad at her for anything even taking her nation. Of course, she won't be mad at her as long as B-Sha tells her why she ran away. B-Sha, calls Neptune a meanie and explains to her that she is afraid of monsters.
Neptune is shocked by this and asks if this was the cause of some childhood trauma. B-Sha says that is true and she tried to get over by becoming a hero and joining Gold Third. B-Sha feels she is a failure. Neptune says that she is not as she makes kids happy and catches criminals. Neptune decides to share roles with her, B-Sha can take care of catching criminals and she will handle monsters. With that the two co-rule Planeptune and become good friends.
The two slack off by building models as Histoire tries to lecture the two of them. The two of them ignore her and promise to get to work after their model. They do not. Later, IF reports how the new arrangement is working out. It is working out well and everyone is starting to remember Neptune. However, there are rumors spreading on the internet. Since it occurred when Neptune and B-Sha went outside to play, Neptune decides to stay in and play on her Swirl Console.
Later, Haneda City is under attack again. Neptune IF and Compa head out to deal with it. They find Warechu who admits that he lured them away. Neptune tells IF, they need to finish this up quickly to protect her console. IF scolds Neptune for not telling her that she had the Swirl Console. Compa breaks Warechu's heart and the group quickly returns to find the console missing.
Neptune asks B-Sha but she does not know. Neptune asks Chuko and she says she spotted a ninja stealing it. Neptune tells IF, it must be the ninja, that helped Arfoire escape earlier. Chuko also takes the time to reward Neptune with a coupon to her store. Neptune promises to use it. The girls note that she should reward B-Sha as she caught Warechu. Chuko says that she will
The girls track him down in a dungeon. They discover that he is Steamax, a ninja shy with girls. Neptune notes out of all the male villains, he has a personality they have not dealt with yet.
The trio fight and defeat Steamax. Neptune is able to retrieve her console. However, Steamax uses his five-greed jutsu, which is essentially distracting people with pornos. Neptune tries to clear her mind of this but fails. However, she was able to tease Steamax with her body until he fainted. She retrieves her console but there is an explosion. Steamax wakes up and tells the girls that the explosion is coming from Planeptune. He urges the girls to follow help back to Planeptune and they do.
Neptune finds a giant Warechu fighting B-Sha. She tries to back up B-Sha to find out that she sees Neptune as a monster. Steamax tells her that both B-Sha and Warechu have something wrong with them. Chuko arrives to explain to the group that a girl came up to the three of them, tried to turn her into a monster but Warechu protected her and then gave B-Sha some "motivation" to fight the monster. Chuko then tells the girls to save the day so that the children can buy games at her store.
Neptune, IF and Compa fight B-Sha. Meanwhile, Steamax leads Warechu away. The fight ends in a tie and Warechu defeats Steamax. Warechu starts to rampage in the city so the citizens scream in terror. Hearing the screams of children, causes B-Sha to stop a little. Neptune tells her that it is okay to be afraid, one should have the courage to accept their fears. With that B-Sha returns to her senses and abandons Presto Mask as she no longer needs it.
The girls then stop Warechu and B-Sha collapses out of fatigue. Histoire checks up on the girls and takes Warechu in as a test subject on delusionary monster since he was turned into one. With that Planeptune is saved. The next few days, IF asks Neptune for her console which she lost probably with all the commotion to Steamax. She decides to worry about it as they can just stop AffimaX and retrieve the console later. Chuko comes over to visit Warechu and does a bad job at hiding her attraction towards the rat. Neptune and IF teases her.
Finale
Histoire has figured out from Warechu that AffimaX is on an aerial battleship. The time has come to confront them as they were responsible for the Order in Lastation, the Revolutionary Army in Lowee and some schemes in Leanbox. She tells Neptune, IF and Compa to get the CPUs and candidates together to defeat them. Meanwhile, they do that, she will get help from another dimension to track down the ship.
Neptune and Compa decide to bring some Planeptune Tower Cakes as souvenirs for the CPUs. Neptune, IF and Compa head over to Lastation. They find Noire waiting for them. Neptune wonders if Noire was drawn to her voice but she explains that a group with their description was headed to Lastation so she waited for them. Neptune then hugs Noire and says that she was lonely and misses her. She wonders if it was the same for Noire. Noire admits that she would be lying if Noire said that she did not miss Neptune. Neptune is glad to have Noire's tsundereness back and is happy to have her help the group defeat AffimaX. Noire gets mad that Neptune has played and Neptune runs. Noire and Uni have joined the group.
Next the girls head over to Lowee. Neptune finds it too cold and Lowee and hoped that the rewriting of Gamindustri would make it warmer. They get to the guild. A Guild Woman asks the girls if they are acquainted with Blanc. They are and she says they will be back soon. When Blanc returns Neptune hugs her saying she needs her "Blancium". Rom and Ram then hug Neptune saying they need their "Neptunium".
Blanc asks why they are here and IF explains the mission. C-Sha then shows up and says her goodbyes to Blanc. Blanc, Rom and Ram have joined the group.
The girls then head to the cost. With the boats still gone, Neptune transforms. She hopes that she can fly and not drop IF and Compa. They make it to Leanbox safe and sound. The girls run into Dogoo Man and Dogoo Lady who shock Neptune. Nepgear hears her sisters and the two are supposed to a sisterly reunion hug. Vert interrupts this. Vert and Nepgear have joined the group.
With that the girls return to Planeptune Basilicom. All the CPUs report their findings, the Order and Revolutionary Army along with S-Sha of the Gold Third were advised by AffimaX. Neptune is shocked to learn that the other Neptune is a member of the group. They can confirm that Warechu, Arfoire, the other Neptune, Steamax and a mysterious girl is part of AffimaX. Histoire has determined the location of the battleship and orders the girls to head out.
Neptune and the girls decide to relax in the hot springs for a little bit before leaving. They note that other than their shares, nothing got rearranged. Next they head off to the battleship. In it they find relatively little security except for the ninja, Steamax. The girls defeat him but he wishes to keep fighting and Noire wants him to stand down so they don't destroy him. Neptune wonders if Noire is sympathizing with him because he is a loner. Noire gets angry at Neptune and chases her around.
Eventually Uni shoots Steamax. Neptune thought it was a real shot and wonders if Uni was working for AffimaX the whole time. Uni explains that it was a tranquilizer since he was annoying. The girls scold Neptune for having such crazy ideas and they move on.
Neptune and the girls confront Affimojas and notes that he was more hyped for the battle than Steamax was. He says he wants money which is why he changed Gamindustri. The CPUs transform and the general says that the CPUs with little shares cannot hope to defeat him. The other CPUs respond with that they worked hard to regain their shares and any share lost will be made up with their feelings. Neptune says for the sake of Gamindustri, they will defeat him.
Neptune and the girls defeat him and Affimojas surrenders. Neptune demands the Swirl Console back while the CPUs demand the world be returned to normal. When the rest of the CPUs' guards are down, Affimojas strikes them with his sword. The CPUs lose their connection to their shares. Nepgear notices that they crystal attached to his sword is the same as the crystal that Arfoire used in the Zero Dimension to nullify shares. Neptune and the other CPUs are taken prisoners and ransomed for a gajillion credits. The CPUs lament this humiliation.
Affimojas then gloats. He brags about their weaknesses and how they were always profitable to begin with. He reveals himself as the admin of @GeneralSummarySite. Now the era of the CPUs is over and he can use the Gold Third to make money with rumors. However, even their time is fading with the destruction of their Gold Crystal.
The Gold Third then arrive with B-Sha happily able to pay the ransom. The debt she owes to Neptune is limitless. S-Sha gives them a Hyper Share Crystal. B-Sha says that is made from the shards of the Gold Crystal. C-Sha says she wanted to help out in the fight in their own way. K-Sha says it contains the world's faith. S-Sha says that if one converts shares into strength, one should be able to create a miracle. With that Neptune and the rest of the CPUs transform to their Next Form. They can feel the faith from all the world that wants a return to the CPU's rule.
The CPUs make short work of Affimojas. He refuses to give up even when Uni offers it for Steamax's sake. Noire and Blanc note that he is being consumed by the Negative Energy. S-Sha says that the only way to save him is to release his soul. Steamax decides to do this as a friend and will not let him go to the afterlife alone. Neptune interrupts this saying she wants a happy ending.
She slices Affimojas' negative energy freeing him from its corruption. The group then returns home. It seems that the citizens have fully remembered Neptune. Neptune says that this was easy and reports this to Histoire and is super proud of her accomplishment. B-Sha decides to charge her for saying that so Neptune apologizes saying that Gold Third helped out a lot. Histoire then notes that everyone remembers the CPUs as the rewrite of Gamindustri has literally been slashed.
Neptune is super impressed about this and can't wait to spread the news to become super famous and gain a bunch of shares and pudding. The people decide to not let this spread to prevent her from expressing the problems of fame. This bursts Neptune's bubble.
In the epilogue, Neptune tricks Uni and Nepgear into reading lines that make them out of character. Histoire and Noire then stop Neptune from continuing her prank. Neptune then asks Histoire how the creation of the Hyper Share Crystal came to be.
The Gold Third decided to donate their shards remaining of their crystal, while B-Sha donates her pristine crystal to create the Hyper Share Crystal. It has the risk of losing their Gold Form. Neptune is thankful for the risk they took. Everything seems ok until alarms blare and a hole in Gamindustri opens up.
Heart Dimension Neptunia H: Trilogy Finale: Into Legend
Histoire orders the CPUs to investigate this hole before to ease the potential fear the citizens may feel. Neptune and the CPUs take up the task but Nepgear and Uni want to tag along. Neptune tells her sister to stay back to protect Planeptune and Noire does the same.
The CPUs enter the hole and Neptune notes that it is like the final dungeon in an old RPG. As a result, Neptune suggests the CPUs should choose their class. Neptune wants to be a warrior. Blanc and Vert play along but Noire keeps the girls on track much to Neptune's displeasure.
As they venture further into the dungeon, Neptune complains as she is tired. Noire berates Neptune for acting like this even if she is a CPU. Neptune says it should be fine as no one else is here except for the CPUs and that she knows Noire's secret as well.
When Noire gets in the shower, she lets out a grumbling sigh like an old man. Noire freaks out and wonder how she knew. Neptune says she traded Uni a copy of Noire's secret cosplay magazine for it. Noire wonders how she got a copy of a magazine of which only a 100 copies were made. Neptune tells her the world is surprisingly small. Noire then asks how many copies does she have. Neptune tells her she has one for herself, one for back up and three more for distribution.
A monster horde then arrives. The other CPUs transform to fight it. Neptune tells them that the monsters are from the Zero Dimension meaning the hole connects Hyper Dimension to the Zero Dimension then transforms to fight them. After defeating a large portion of it, the CPUs transform back. The girls wonder how they can return to the Hyper Dimension without the horde. Neptune decides to use some explosives, she got from Nepgear.
Neptune sets of the explosives blocking the horde and the Zero Dimension. The other CPUs complain about Neptune's lack of a warning. Uzume then arrives to also complain. Neptune is glad to meet her old friend and wonders if she was investigating the hole as well. Uzume says she is not as she is the commander of the monsters but is glad to see the other CPUs.
Uzume summons up Dark Purple. Neptune wonders why she can summon up the monster. Uzume says it does not matter as soon the CPUs and everything else will be drowning in an endless whirlpool of delusion. Dark Purple captures the CPUs and takes them to the center of the Heart Dimension.
In Neptune's dream, a grandma and youth from Planeptune gives Neptune croquette and pudding respectively and Neptune thanks them. A young girl tells Neptune she got 100 in her tastes so Neptune praises her. A boy tells Neptune his achievement of becoming a regular on his baseball team and asks Neptune to watch his tournament. Neptune says she has been watching the boy practice by the riverside until night and promises to attend his tournaments.
Neptune is happy to be free from the Dark CPU along with the other CPUs. Nepgear is happy to see her sister and gets close to her. Neptune notices Nepgear and says that she has to kill her. Noire scolds her saying that she is too direct and Neptune should not shock her sister like this. Neptune apologizes and says it would be a shame as she needs to torture Nepgear first. Neptune gets next to her sister playfully singing her name then transforms to start strangling her.
Nepgear asks why to which Neptune replies she hates her and how she can order Neptune around all the time. Neptune tightens her grip as Nepgear struggles but hesistates as Nepgear makes sounds of agony. Older Neptune intercepts forcing Neptune to let go.
Neptune is unhappy remarking that it was just getting to the good part. Nepgear notices her sister's hesistation and convinces the mission to fight to return Neptune and the CPUs to their senses.
After the battle, Uzume wonders why the CPUs aren't back yet. They should not be wanting to hurt their sisters or anything else they love. Neptune regains her senses and apologizes to her sister for all the horrible things she has done and says she was not herself. Nepgear forgives and Kurome is in shock that they were able to drag the CPUs out of the whirlpool of delusion. She forces more Negative Energy to the CPUs.
The CPUs try their best to resist but are in pain. Kurome tells Uzume that she cannot win. Neptune pleads for Uzume's help. Uzume tells the CPUs they must be able to save themselves or else they can't be CPUs. Nevertheless, she admits they are a hassle and if they need help, she asks everyone to pray that to her that the CPUs can return to their senses. Kurome asks her if she is trying to create a Share Crystal and Uzume says that she is. Kurome says it is impossible but Uzume tells her not underestimate her illusion power.
Uzume with the faith of the everyone creates the crystal and transforms the CPUs to their Next Form. Kurome wonders what are those forms? Croire can't believe that they can neutralize all the Negative Energy. Uzume tells her they did not neutralize it but got rid of all of it.
Neptune thanks her but Kurome unleashes Dark Green at the party. Uzume activates her Sharing Field with the Share Crystal. The party destroy Dark Green but find Kurome smiling. Kurome says that she will win and asks them to check the dimensional co-ordinates. Nepgear checks and notices the dimension much closer to the Hyper Dimension but she says it has only been a short time.
Kurome explains it is because they are in the Heart Dimension, she can bring the Heart Dimension closer to the Hyper Dimension with no resistance. She notes that the dimension are close enough for her to materialize, at least for a short time. Croire creates a portal as the two begin to leave to the Hyper Dimension. Blanc asks her if she is running to which Kurome apologizes and leaves a bunch of fake clones of the CPUs for them to fight. She says she created them to influence their dreams but does not need them anymore. The party can dispose of them in however they wish. The two leaves.
Older Neptune is angry that Croire would leave her. Neptune tells Nepgear, the candidates and Gold Third to follow Kurome as the CPUs will deal with the fakes. They assure her that their real sisters can beat any mumber of fake. The candidates and Gold Third take their leave after Uzume hands them a Share Crystal in case Kurome has anymore Dark CPUs. IF and Compa stay behind to help the CPUs. They state that the CPUs need help since they got captured so easily. Neptune then thank Uzume once again and the two begin to catch up. Older Neptune interupts the two and says they must deal with the fakes.
Heart Dimension route
The fakes have a parody of the CPU's personality, which causes the CPUs to transform back. Neptune is upset that the moment was ruined. The two Neptunes wonder if it is some debuff cause by their weird dialogue and movement. Compa asks if IF is going to scold Neptune but IF says that scolding two Neptunes is a waste of calories. Compa wonders if she can make a diet drink out of that. Umio says diets are important but are they ready to fight the fakes. Neptune says she is ready to Umiotaro. They prepare for battle but Umio interupts her to remind her that his name is Umio. Neptune says oh.
The girls manage to defeat the fakes and Neptune notes that fakes are never a match for the real thing. Uzume feels sad hearing that and Noire nudges Neptune. Neptune quickly apologizes to Uzume and Uzume forgives her and understands. Croire returns to congratulate the CPUs and group for defeating some many fakes. Older Neptune is surprised to see Croire again. IF asks her what is Croire planning. Croire responds with a question and asks them what are they planning to do after knowing everything.
Noire says they plan to defeat Kurome. Croire reminds them that if they do then the Heart Dimension and Zero Dimension disappear getting rid of Uzume, Umio and all of Zero Dimension's inhabitants. Older Neptune is not happy with the two choices and Croire asks her if she was paying attention. Their choices boil down to letting Kurome do as she pleases which will screw over the Hyper Dimension or stopping her with the consequences that Croire previous talked about.
Older Neptune says Croire is cruel and they cannot choose. Neptune remarks that this must be the part where a third option shows up in a few seconds. Older Neptune agrees and says that the option will likely lead to their happy ending. Croire wonders if the two Neptunes only have games in their head. Well she says they better choose soon as the dimensions are getting closer together.
Umio wonders why must the world being so cruel to Uzume. Croire says it is just Uzume's punishment as she nearly destroyed the Hyper Dimension.
Uzume runs away after hearing this. Croire says that Uzume just ran away. IF asks Neptune what they are going to do. Neptune says they must pursue her as someone needs to help her cope with her new memories and leaves.
Neptune and the others follow Uzume's trail to Tangram Road. Neptune wonders if this is the right place. Umio assures of this as his dorsal fin is picking up Uzume.
Deeper within the dungeon, Older Neptune found Uzume. Neptune congratulates her and praises her eyes. Older Neptune is flattered but says Neptune is better being a CPU. Neptune says she is too humble and she should say "Cause I'm the protagonist! Eat that". Older Neptune thinks that is fun. Neptune says they should say together which they do.
Umio then volunteers to talk to her as he has known her for a long time and is not a CPU so it may be easier for her to be honest. Neptune and the others stay hidden from Uzume's sight but watch Umio. A flashback of the past appears behind her.
Histoire announces that she will be working with a grassroots youth in a publicity campaign. The youth is eager and happy to work with Uzume. The youth asks a few kids ahead to address Uzume politely if she passes by with a cart. The kids do so. A middle aged man wants to live in Planeptune but the youth cannot grant his wish. Another man says that is just how it works. The youth tells Uzume that they should work together to build a wonderful nation.
Another man comments on the recent events of Uzume losing control of her illusion power. The grassroots youth wonders if there is anything they can do to help Uzume. Some youths comment on the failed assassination attempts. They think the nation will collapse if Uzume keeps ruling. The youth expresses his relief that Uzume is still alive. An old woman wonders why the world is so cruel to Uzume as she earnestly tried her best. A young sobbingly asks her grandmother if there is anything to save Uzume.
An assassin finds Uzume and makes his attempt. The youth gets in the way and gets fatally wounded. He tells Uzume that he is glad she is okay that she should not cry. The youth says his wish is to see that Uzume's dreams come true and be there with her when it happens. Afterwards Histoire accepts Uzume's request to be sealed. She promises that she will find a way to seal her illusion power so she can comeback and that they will only part for a short time.
Uzume is glad to have remembered all her memories. Neptune interrupts this moment. IF says that the youth protected Uzume and lost his life but the emotions and regrets of the two allowed him to reincarnate as Umio. Neptune admits that her series is prolific but for actual romance plot to occur is something she was supposed to avoid.Neptune says he cannot allow the series to have a game where Umio has a harem to occur. Uzume asks them how they were able to see her flashback.
Older Neptune says the flashback was projected right behind her. Neptune admits that the Heart Dimension plot point was confusing but it can be entertaining sometimes. Uzume asks them to kill her over the embarrassment.
Umio asks Uzume if she is calm. Uzume assures him that she is but not she cannot choose between the Hyper Dimension or the Heart Dimension as she grew to like both of them. Neptune says she has discovered the third option. Older Neptune is amazed and asks her what idea is. Neptune says if Negative Energy made the other Uzume evil, who she decides to call Kurome Ankokuboshi to avoid confusion. IF remarks that it is expected that the same person would have the same naming scheme. Neptune finishes by saying they could purify her with Share Energy like what they did with Affimojas.
While the plan makes senses, the CPUs are unsure that they have enough Share Energy due to amount of Negative Energy Kurome has absorbed over the decades. Neptune says it is the only way to save both dimensions. Umio asks Uzume for her opinion. She wants to try the plan and will back away from a tough gamble.
They decide to purify the Heart Dimension as it is literally Uzume's heart. The party sets off. Neptune and the party enters DreamPass Area in order to purify the Heart Dimension. In the depths of this dungeon, they find a giant shattered Share Crystal floating in the distance. Older Neptune explains that it is the crystallization of the Share Energy sealed with Uzume's body when she was sealed. Croire arrives to add that it is the reason that there are share crystals in the Zero Dimension. Older Neptune is surprised to see her old friend. Croire greets older Neptune.
Older Neptune asks Croire not to help Kurome anymore as both dimensions will be destroyed. Croire tells her that she has recorded many beginnings and ends of many worlds. Older Neptune says that recording is fine but she is participating in it. She cannot allow Croire to be free anymore. Croire says that older Neptune is more interested in her dimension hopping abilities. Older Neptune tries to feign ignorance of that fact but fails. Croire then realizes that older Neptune had been playing the role of the clown the whole time, sabotoging AffimaX and so on.
Noire tells Croire, she took long enough to figure it out. Neptune may be happy go lucky and spouts nonsensical meta-jokes but she has always been. Neptune cuts her off with a scream. Noire and Croire are shocked. Croire tells her to stop yelling as she was not talking to her. Neptune complains that she is the protagonist of the series but older Neptune has been a lot more relevant than she has. Her narrative has been weak in Heart Dimension as she was captured despite having her Next Form. She has had very little screen time. Neptune says she will sue for protagonist fraud and she will win. The plot should have been about her once the party split but it focused on older Neptune and Uzume.
IF asks her to calm down and reminds her that she has been the protagonist in the Hyper Dimension part of the game. Compa agrees and says as a protagonist she should be tolerant of this change as a goddess or at least of a mother. Neptune continues her whining about her lack of screen time and ability which is unfair for someone who is the protagonist. Umio says Neptune might be falling into a delusion. Uzume says she is not confident in her ability to free Neptune if she falls this time.
Croire wonders what is wrong with the party but she says they will not get in her way in recording history. Croire summons Dark White. Uzume says Dark White is no match for them due to her Sharing Field. Vert agrees but notices that Dark White has a smaller chest than Dark Green. Blanc is in shock. Vert says she understands that the Dark CPUs have copied their power but she did not think they would copy their figure as well.
Older Neptune says that Dark White does have some bust and volume. Neptune says that if Dark White fully copied Blanc's figure then Dark White would be too stick-like. Neptune also purposes that perhaps Kurome felt sorry for Dark White and decides to give her something. Blanc snaps and says she will not be made a fool of by anyone even Kurome. She says she is just angered by the sight of Dark White and demands Uzume to activate Sharing Field.
Uzume transforms and activates her shaving field. The party makes short work of Dark White. Croire can't believe the Dark CPUs were so easily beaten. Older Neptune sneaks up to Croire and captures her in her Nep-Note then announces Croire's defeat.
With no obstacles in the way, Neptune thinks it is time to attempt to purify the world. Neptune asks the CPUs for all their shares and everyone to pray. Neptune attempts the purification. Compa notices nothing has happened. Neptune says that there was a reaction but the Share Energy was all neutralized. Neptune thinks they should meet up with Nepgear and revise their plan.
Joining Up
Nepgear calls out to Neptune. Neptune recognizes her sister's voice and says that must mean things went well with them. The Gold Third and CPU Candidates rejoin the party. Nepgear explains that they first lost the console but thanks to everyone's help they got it back. In addition, they were concerned with the Dark CPU but the Share Crystal sorted that out for them. then. Nepgear wonders how were things with them as they came here because they followed Kurome but she escaped.
Neptune's group wants to know more about how they can follow Kurome. Uni explains that Kurome broke the rubble that Neptune create and ran here. Older Neptune says it must have been because they captured Croire. Neptune wants to see that herself.
K-Sha wonders what the CPUs were up to while they were all away. Noire explains that to her with Uzume and Umio giving Nepgear their thanks for the reports she collected.
An earthquake occurs and Neptune wonders what is happening. Croire says Kurome has finally done it. She has taken in the power of the CPU from another dimension. A fraction of this power can move dimensions with ease but it will likely consume Kurome as Croire told her she should only use after she has revived. Umio thinks she is trying to speed up the fusion of dimensions. Croire remarks as they are all here, she can finally record some interesting history.
Neptune wants to find Kurome immediately. Noire wonders what they can do if they find her as they cannot just defeat her. Blanc says persuasion is not an option as she is the embodiment of hate. Uzume says she has a plan and they must find her. The party searches for Kurome.
The party manages to find Kurome Ankokuboshi in a dungeon. Kurome asks what they plan to do, they kill her, both of them and this world disappears. If they let her go, the dimensions will fuse and she will become the Hyper Dimension. Uzume asks her if she has taken in the power of the CPU from another dimension and if the power amazing.
Kurome confirms that it is awesome and the fusion has sped up. It will only be a little longer and the party is stuck. Uzume reveals her plan which is to beat Kurome up and take the power of the CPU from another dimension. S-Sha assumes that if they have the power, they can stop the dimensions from fusing. Neptune is ready for what they have to do.
Uzume declares that today is the day she defeats herself that is drowning in hatred. Kurome declares that she will defeat herself and all the others in the way. Kurome wanted to have them all alive to experience the eternal hell she was going put Gamindustri through but they are becoming a major interference in her plans. Kurome summons all the Dark CPUs.
Neptune says they have the Sharing Field so the Dark CPUs are nothing. Kurome counters with asking the Dark CPUs to fuse. Neptune is surprised by the giant monstrosity. Kurome explains that the new Dark CPUs now has all the powers of the CPUs and she decides to fuse with it to become Dark Orange. Dark Orange says that the form is perfect for taking revenge on Gamindustri. The CPUs are in awe of the power Dark Orange possesses. Uzume asks the CPUs why they are getting nervous as this should be expected.
Dark Orange calls the party useless as they are unable to fight with Sharing Field. No Sharing Field can contain her. Uzume says she has an ace card. Dark Orange says even if she had an ace card, it would not be enough. Uzume points the giant Share Crystal in the Heart Dimension. Dark Orange warns her that using the crystal is like using their "lifeline". They will both die. Neptune agrees with Dark Orange and tells her she can't die now. Uzume says she is not suicidal and will use the crystal until there is a little bit of shares left then turn it off. That way, Dark Orange will weaken too.
Dark Orange is angry but calls it useless. Uzume calls this her last HDD and transforms to Orange Heart to activate the Sharing Field. The party manages to defeat Dark Orange.
Dark Orange says that she cannot die yet until her revenge on Gamindustri is complete. Uzume tells Dark Orange that she will never get her revenge. Neptune is happy that both worlds are saved. Kurome performs one last act of vengeance and takes the power of the CPU from another dimension down with her. Neptune asks her older self if they can use Croire as some way to stop the dimensions from fusing. Older Neptune says Croire can only move people between dimensions.
A monster horde is heard. It is a massive one coming from the land, sea and air and heading to the Hyper Dimension. Older Neptune wonders why as they beat Kurome. Croire explains that she must have given the order to the monsters to destroy the Hyper Dimension just as she died and remarks that she truly went down gun blazin'.
Vert is amazed that she hated Gamindustri that much. Neptune says that it was just a bunch of misunderstandings and assumptions. There never actually any hate. Noire wishes she can be that easily convinced. There is no way for the party to intercept the horde or return to the Hyper Dimension to mount a proper defense against the horde. S-Sha admits Kurome did manage to win.
Uzume has one final plan and asks Nepgear to destroy the giant Share Crystal then the party must head back to the Hyper Dimension. Nepgear is shocked to hear this. Neptune asks her what is she saying. Older Neptune says Uzume will die. Uzume says this is the only way and only Nepgear can do it. Nepgear wonders why must it be her. Uzume explains that her weapon has the range and she was the one that saw Uzume's adventures from the beginning to end. Nepgear can't and breaks down crying.
Neptune says it is too much for her sister and transforms. Neptune offers to help her shoot and they will carry Uzume's dreams and life. The sisters shoot and destroy the crystal. Nepgear apologizes and Neptune is glad to have met Uzume even if there was not much time. The party flees to the Hyper Dimension.
Ascension Ending
The party heads back to the Hyper Dimension through the portal Histoire created. Neptune asks Histoire what is the current status of the monster horde. Histoire reports that the monster horde is heading south and growing. It is only a matter of time until they reach the Hyper Dimension. Nepgear notices the Swirl Console breaking. Neptune tells Uzume not to break and that she will save her. She asks that Uzume does not break but the console breaks disappearing in a beautiful light. Neptune cries.
A few days have passed and in the Planeptune observatory, Neptune asks her sister what she is doing. Nepgear says she is enjoying the view of the city that they were able to protect. Nepgear thinks Uzume probably looked out at the city like this before too. Neptune is sure of that as this is the best spot to see the city. Neptune then screams out. Nepgear wonders what is wrong. Neptune says it is nothing and she just wanted yell like Uzume. Nepgear says she has yell from her stomach more. Uzume's voice appears telling Neptune to yell from her stomach to make it cool. The sisters are surprised and ask each other if they heard that. Neptune comes to the conclusion that Uzume is watching them. Nepgear asks her to keep watching as they build a wonderful nation that will honor her memory. Neptune adds that even if the world forgets about her, they will not forget the CPU that sacrificed herself twice for the world. Uzume will always one of them, a CPU of Planeptune.
Revival Ending
Neptune asks the party if it is okay to leave like this. Older Neptune sympathizes with Neptune but urges her to go. Noire adds that they need to respect Uzume's final wishes. Neptune does not care as she is unhappy. Noire tells her to hurry back before the dimension collapses. Neptune tells the party she needs everyone for a happy ending and runs off for Uzume.
Neptune finds Uzume saying that she will fight until all her bone and flesh are torn. Neptune arrives to remind her not to activate her death flags. Neptune tells her older self to take care of Uzume and asks her sisters to help her out in holding off the horde.
Older Neptune agrees and tells Uzume that she will be fine. She should lean on her. Uzume asks Neptune why to which Neptune answers that she wants a happy ending and she will trip all the flags to do it. Older Neptune tries to warp them all back but Croire is out of energy. Affimojas then arrives with his ship to help the girls out.
Nepgear wonders why Affimojas and Steamax are here. Affimojas explains that he had a bad feeling and decided to test drive his second battleship here. Nepgear wonders how they got a second battleship. Steamax explains that they got the battleship in a promotion. When you buy one battleship, the second is half price. Neptune wonders how Steamax can even talk to them considering Steamax is weak to talking to girls. Affimojas tells them to hurry as their main ship is in the Zero Dimension.
