📖 SYNOPSIS
In a future devastated by earthquakes and global warming, Japan is a land of stark contrasts. The remnants of civilization are overgrown by jungle, where some desperately fight for survival. Others live in the technologically advanced, closed-off city of Atlas, while anonymous hackers manipulate the global economy online. Kuniko, a courageous young woman, is destined to lead her people from the ruins to the promised utopia of Atlas. However, the city's government is unwilling to welcome them, and Kuniko must confront their resistance. As she fights for her people, she will discover that the utopia she dreams of is built upon a foundation of hidden secrets and deceit, challenging her ideals and the very nature of the promised land. The anime explores themes of class disparity, environmental collapse, and the pursuit of a better future.
