Synopsis:

Saiga, a high school student with a talent for mathematics, finds his ordinary life irrevocably altered by the discovery of his missing father's remains. His father, a renowned archaeologist, vanished years prior while investigating a peculiar triangular mountain in Japan, locally known as "Japan's pyramid." The site yields cryptic notes and artifacts that the family must analyze, leading them deeper into the mountain’s mysteries. When a meteor carrying an extraterrestrial entity crashes nearby, Saiga is thrust into extraordinary circumstances. A bracelet from his father's research activates, merging him with a dormant robot buried within the pyramid – Reideen. Now, Saiga must navigate this unexpected transformation and learn to pilot Reideen to defend against the alien threat, confronting questions of legacy, scientific discovery, and humanity’s place in the cosmos.
