content
People once lived inside the artificial planet Aposimz, but they lost the right to live there in a war and now have to survive on the cold surface. In addition to the hostile environment, there is also a disease that turns people into aggressive cyborgs called “puppets”. Here a group led by Esrō collects fruit for their small community. While they notice a large number of sick people, they see how airplanes of the Ribedoa Empire chase a girl. They help the girl and kill the soldiers to avoid being attacked by Ribedoa. From the girl they receive an object that can supposedly destroy the world if it falls into Ribedoa's hands. When the village is suddenly attacked by dolls, only Esrō can escape.
The subject of the girl is the Automaton Titania. Esrō can transform it into a "standard doll" - a particularly strong doll that retains its humanity. The community learns that Ribedoa with Titania wants to recapture the core of Aposimz and rule the planet. To avenge his village and stop Ribedoa, Esrō embarks on a journey via Aposimz to fight against other dolls and the overpowering empire.
