(Given that the director-writer team for this also produced the masterfully-written Koi Kaze, the quality level should be no surprise.) Watching the first four episodes is an experience in gradually assembling the story piece by piece in a vertical as well as horizontal direction, and it can be a fascinating exercise.


The idyllic paradise of Tatsumiya Island is disrupted when the Festum—a mysterious being that's part technology and part mythology—appears over the island and threatens to destroy it. The island government quickly sends out the giant robot Fafner to battle the Festum, but only certain high-schoolers can sync with the machine. Kazuki Makabe is the first one to pilot the robot, and his mission ends in retreat, but he gets a second chance when the monstrous being re-emerges a few days later.
