Synopsis

In the Republic of San Magnolia, a long and bloody war rages against an unknown enemy. To protect their homeland, the Republic has deployed autonomous unmanned weapons called "Juggernauts." However, behind the scenes, these Juggernauts are piloted by young men and women known as the "Eighty-Six." Branded as disposable, these soldiers fight in the shadows, their sacrifices hidden from the citizens they protect.

Among the Eighty-Six is Shin, a young man with a hardened heart and a thirst for revenge. As he leads his squad into battle, he meets Lena, a Republic officer who insists on treating her soldiers as humans, not tools. Together, they face the horrors of war and grapple with the weighty question of what it means to be truly alive.
