Universal Control
Universal Control is the underground mainframe. The town residents are all controlled by Universal Control, which sometimes adjusts the residents' memories or situations and twists the truth in order to eliminate any possible inconsistencies in the world.
A giant disc-shaped structure with a diameter of 30 km, 300 meters below Ashitaba City.
When the Universal Control of all sectors gets taken over by Deimos, the five sectors get reset, the world gets recreated, and a new loop occurs.
It's linked with the surface through a region called the terminal. There are two terminals that have been analyzed, Sector 1 and Sector 3. Out of the two, the terminal of Sector 3 is the only one that allows access to mainframe.[1]
The center device of the terminal is used to authenticate biometric IDs, required when shifting to other sectors or accessing personal logs.
The 2188 Tsukasa Okino is the developer of Universal Control, as well as the one responsible for borrowing a portion of the environment management system from a "Deimos" simulation game.
All humans except for the 15 members of Project Ark are AI constructs that are controlled by Universal Control.
Notes
- ↑ During the events of A Shift of the Populace, Chihiro Morimura (Child) is able to access the mainframe through Sector 4's Universal Control.
