Stillborn terror strikes from Tokyo Bay.
Directed by Takuji Endo, Fumihiko Takayama
Produced by Madhouse, Bandai Visual
A dark, conspiracy-driven mecha thriller that blends procedural investigation with biological horror and military action, grounded in personal tragedy.
Set in the year 2000, when the level of Labor accidents begin to escalate around Tokyo Bay, police detectives Kusumi and Hata are assigned to investigate. What they discover leads to a series of government cover-ups, conspiracy concerning a new biological weapon entitled WXIII-Wasted Thirteen and a tragic, personal connection to Hata. The only hope to stop this threat is to cooperate with the military and lead WXIII into a showdown with the Labors of Special Vehicle Division 2.
