Synopsis:

In a Tokyo scarred by a nuclear catastrophe two decades prior, the existence of humanity is a precarious matter. The Health Care team, a unit within the Dispatch 3rd Special Force Coppelion, operates within this desolate landscape, tasked with locating and evacuating any remaining human life for the JGSDF. Ibara Naruse, alongside her companions Aoi Fukasaku and Taeko Nomura, navigate the silent streets, encountering isolated pockets of survivors amidst an unsettling stillness.

As they fulfill their mission, however, questions arise regarding their own nature. The girls possess an inexplicable resilience to the contaminated environment, prompting a deeper exploration of what it truly means to be human. The series presents a contemplative atmosphere, examining themes of survival, identity, and the ethical complexities inherent in a post-apocalyptic world where the lines between human and something else begin to blur.
