    Synopsis:

    The arrival of the extraterrestrial entity Dryus throws humanity into turmoil, prompting a response from the dedicated Space Patrol. At the forefront of this defense is Fighbird, a pilot who undergoes a significant transformation when confronted with the threat. Fighbird merges with an experimental android created by Dr. Amano, resulting in Hidori Ryutaro – a being caught between humanity and his alien origins.

    Initially presented as an unassuming assistant to Dr. Amano, Ryutaro’s demeanor shifts sharply upon encountering danger. The series explores themes of identity and responsibility through Ryutaro's struggle to reconcile his innate nature with his role as Earth’s protector. The narrative balances action sequences against moments of quiet introspection, examining the cost of defending a world that may never fully accept him. The story unfolds within a world grappling with an unprecedented invasion, emphasizing the complexities of heroism and belonging.
