Border

Border (ボーダー) is an agency in Mikado City. It was created for the sake of protecting the city from Neighbor attacks. They fight the Neighbors by the means of Trigger, the technology of Neighbors.

History
Not much is known about Border's history. It became publicly-known about 4.5 years before the start of the series, but Shinoda implied that it had been created before that. Yūgo was in the organization back then.

Roles
Border members fight Trion Soliders who invade Mikado City. However, they are not always at the scene in time, leaving citizens to fend for themselves or if there's an agent, to fight it themselves. A-class and B-class members get paid, although C-class trainees don't.

Trivia

 * In the Viz version, it was called Border Defense Agency, which is also in Border's logo.
