The Anime

Megaton Musashi (First Cour)

People lived peaceful, fulfilling lives in a perfectly ordinary town. But they had no idea that their peace was a lie. What they didn't know was … Earth had already been destroyed. Mysterious aliens launched a powerful attack from space and destroyed 99.9% of humanity. The enemies were called Draktors. Before long, these foes created a massive hole in Earth and terraformed it to an environment suitable for habitation.

Mankind had no choice but to escape their scrutiny and hide out in shelters. There, they waited for the day they could return, not knowing if it would even come. With their memories of the annihilation erased, the residents of the shelter, Ixia, lived normal lives blissfully unaware of the truth. But amongst them lived a few chosen ones, who fought the aliens as pilots operating giant robots called Rogues.

And today, another pilot was chosen…

Megaton Musashi (Second Cour)

The year 2120. The war between the remaining 1% of humanity and the Draktors still rages on, still relentless in their own goals to annihilate the other. Yet... The recent Draktor attack on Shelter Ixia makes it clear: things have changed.

Oblivion Bay's best Rogue pilot, Yamato Ichidaiji, was left distraught at the sudden revelation of the late Sayaka Minami, actually a Draktor who sided with humanity by providing them the means to fight back. Furthermore, having separated from Shelter Ixia following the attack carried out by her brother, Arshem Laia was left wandering the empty wastelands of Earth alongside a man named Victor Jaeger, and his own Rogue, Musashi O.

Their paths, miles apart from each other, will eventually cross as the truth behind the Draktor's take-over of Earth and the secrets about humanity's true potential are slowly revealed as mankind slowly approaches the last bastion of humankind called "Sanctuary".
