The year is 2030 and a war continues to rage on between refugees and the increasing hostile national population. Tensions bubble to the surface as terrorist attacks by the splinter group Individual Eleven wreak havoc on an already fragile Tokyo. We discover that the seemingly random acts of violence are actually a campaign with the most sinister of objectives. With a sadistic intent of mass destruction, will they triumph in victory or discover the gloomy pitfalls of defeat?

  • Really long movie

    Maybe the longest movie ever made. It seems longer than it actually is. I had no flippin' clue what was going on. They could have broken this up into 12 hour long episodes. Lots of talking, characters rambling on about ethics and pontificating about the nature of humanity and whatnot. I mean, people don't really talk like that. If someone started lecturing me out of the blue like that for like 20 minutes, I'd just walk away. There's a guy who speaks without moving his mouth, which I never did understand. And for someone who doesn't use his mouth to talk, he sure talks a lot. Something about plutonium. Lots of robots. There's like 8 identical robots that are really excited and super jacked about everything. I guess some people exist on the internet? Or are always connected to the internet, so they can like be affected by computer viruses? Or something. And some people are androids, but you don't know that they are until someone rips their arms off or whatever. The hero babe has a huge rack, and considering she has an artificial body, that means the 'huge rack' thing was a conscious decision on her part. Or someone made that choice for her. And she's pretty much the only one that ooks like that, so she's obviously the token 'hot babe.' This whole move is just wacked out. It's like 4 movies in one. There's an action/espionage movie. A crazy sci-fi movie. The over-excited robots make it feel like a kids movie. There's all sorts of weird maybe romantic/philosphical subtext. People getting their heads blown off left and right, and the people around act ilke this is just an every day occurance, like ho-hum, yeah, whatever. At one point the robot hero babe is holding an apple, but I didn't think robots needed to eat. And she was either carrying that apple around the whole time, or.. I didn't see a farmer's market or food stalls for her to buy one at. Where did she get the apple from? Some days her hair is black, some days it's purple. There's all this crazy stuff going on and she has time to die her hair every other day? The whole thing was just really confusing. And the ending just came out of nowhere, like ta-da! Movie's over! Fade to black, roll credits.
