Japanese CGI animated feature set in the middle of the 21st century. When Japan uses its technological genius to try to create a human/robot hybrid, the international community is united in condemnation. Japan, therefore, decides to shut itself off from the rest of the world. Ten years later, the Americans are deeply concerned about the activitities of the giant, robot-producing conglomerate, Daiwa Heavy Industries, and the potential threat the hybrids pose to humankind, so they send a crack paramilitary unit called 'SWORD' to infiltrate what is now known as 'Fortress Japan'...
