DS Lab

The Dark Science Research Encouragement Association, also known as DS Labs is an organization first introduced in File 8: Little Bird in a Box. They are a General Incorporated Foundation originally founded to explore the UBL (Ultra Blue Landscape) but later shifted focus on protecting the victims of the place and seeking ways to treat them.

Background
Founded in the early nineties,the DS Labs' main goal is to research the unknown areas of science called Dark Science (which nowadays is called marginal science, trans-science, or non-traditional science), but more specifically to explore the unknown world named they call the UBL  or the Ultra Blue Landscape. However, not long after DS Labs began their research and expeditions, victims appear one after another. The organization then shifted their goal on protecting the victims and seeking ways to treat them instead. Even after losing their original purpose, DS Labs continues to exist through financial support from relatives of the victim, VIPs from companies involved in the founding of the DS Lab and even members themselves. The Organiztion still continues their research about the UBL, collecting UBL artifacts like the items they bought from Sorawo and Toriko.
