What I got from the story and character synopses to me definitely feels like social commentary. A virus called "Lost Christmas" basically says that the country is sick because it has no savior to turn to, and the "Undertakers" can be a symbol of burrying the status quo or to undertake a new beginning. Shu will play the role of the king, the lost savior, who has the ability to extract the potential of his nakamatachi to save Japan, or something to that extent.
I guess it's worth noting that I'm still under heavy influence by noitaminA's latest series, [ C ] (which was awesome, by the way). Even though I'm still not sure if I like the direction the program block is heading into, at least it's providing useful matter for the passive protesters--the otaku--to think about.
