Settled in 56 A.S., planet Honshu was the first colony in Kusari, after the initial colonisation of planet New Tokyo. It bears a number of similarities to the capital planet, mainly in that it is an ocean world with few sizeable land masses. With so little land available for farming, the settlers turned to fishing as their primary industry. Unfortunately, very few Terran fish species took to the oceans of Honshu, although tuna and salmon were among those that were able to survive. The colonists struggled to feed themselves for several centuries, until a catastrophic decline in the fish stocks in 250 A.S. caused most of the inhabitants to abandon the planet and seek their fortunes elsewhere. The vast majority of the population cast their eyes on the nearby Crow Nebula and its bountiful gas resources, which eventually lead them to form the Gas Miners Guild.

With the colonists abandoning their ancestral home in favour of the Crow Nebula, Honshu lay fallow for over 250 years. Eventually, in 510 A.S., Kishiro Technologies decided that Honshu would be the perfect location to construct its main optronics production facility, especially after planetary surveys revealed the oceans to contain significant quantities of various chemicals and raw materials that were useful in the manufacture of optronics themselves.
