Synopsis:

Set in a future dominated by colossal, invulnerable war machines known as Objects, *Heavy Object* explores a world where traditional warfare is obsolete. The series follows Qwenthur Barbotage, an Object Design student, and Havia Winchell, a radar analyst, as they serve with the 37th Mobile Maintenance Battalion, supporting a vital national Object called the Baby Magnum. A disastrous battle throws them into an unexpected conflict, forcing these infantry soldiers to confront the overwhelming power of enemy Objects.

The narrative chronicles their globe-trotting missions alongside the Baby Magnum's pilot, Milinda Brantini, and their commanding officer, Frolaytia Capistrano. The story emphasizes strategic problem-solving and the resilience of individuals in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. *Heavy Object* presents a thoughtful examination of conflict, technological dependence, and the unexpected potential for human ingenuity when facing overwhelming power.
