Synopsis to 86: Eighty-six

The Republic of the Holy Magnolia. This country has long been besieged by its neighbor, the Giadic Empire, which created a series of unmanned drones called the Legion. After years of meticulous research, the republic has finally developed its own autonomous drones that turn the one-sided fight into a lossless war - at least that is what the government claims.

In truth there is no such thing as a bloodless war. Beyond the walls that protect the republic's 85 territories is the "nonexistent" "eighty-six sector". The young men and women of this deserted country are branded "eighty-six" and, robbed of their humanity, lead the "unmanned" weapons into battle ... battlefield. Lena is a "manipulator" who, with the help of a special communication, commands the detachment from the far back. The farewell story to the difficult and sad struggle between the two begins!
