On the vast planet Arata, a robot named Skittie wakes up in a strange place with no memory of his past. While uncovering his origin and purpose, he stumbles upon even more mysteries. What will he find on his adventures?
ArtifiSouls provides examples of:
- Alien Sky: Eltauris, the sun that the planet Arata orbits, orbits another larger star, named Excidium.
- Amnesiac Hero: Skittie wakes up in the ruins without any memory on what happened before he got there.
- Cyber Cyclops: Oku has a singular eye-screen.
- Goggles Do Nothing: Kuta wears goggles on his head, but they don't serve to protect his eyes — they're just a part of his facescreen, after all.
- Great Offscreen War: As Halibut tells to Scales, the planet suffered a massive war between the humans and the wildlife of the planet for its dominion.
- Humans Are Bastards: Humanity came to Arata with plans to conquer it and colonize it, fighting a war against the Great Spirits for the dominion of the world. The war ended when humanity launched nuclear bombs to weaken the spirits and fry them with plasma.
- Mechanical Lifeform: The planet Arata has several robots inhabiting it, with all of them being able to feel like your average human being.
- MegaCorp: Espera used to be a large corporation with multiple factories across the planet when the humans started to colonize it. After the war, the radiation produced by the nuclear bombs made the factories abandoned and left alone.
- Multi-Armed and Dangerous: Pekkr has two left forearms branching from a single upper arm, exactly like Smoky Quartz from Steven Universe.
- My God, What Have I Done?: Humanity isn’t really proud of themselves after launching the nuclear bombs to kill the spirits.
- Ridiculously Human Robots: All of the robots in the webcomic are able to feel and think like a human does. It is also mentioned that they can sleep and eat batteries.
- Scenery Porn: The webcomic is pack full of beautiful scenery and landscapes, especially during later chapters.
- Unnaturally Blue Lighting: The Factory ruins are awash in an icy blue, which the June 12 Special says was deliberate, to make the place look eerie and silent.
