Collection of episodes from the Japanese anime adapted from Eiichi Ikegami's light novel. In a future dystopian world which was turned into a jungle wasteland by global warming and a massive earthquake, society has been fractured, divided by the upper classes who live in luxury in Atlas, a specially built closed-off city, and those forced to live in the tough conditions outside of its walls. One of these unfortunate citizens is Kuniko Hojo (voice of Mikako Takahashi), a young boomerang-wielding girl in training to become the leader of resistance group Metal Age, who is determined to get behind the city gates and bring down the corrupt government.
