Synopsis: In the distant future, mankind has taken to the stars and formed the Galactic Alliance of Humankind (Jinrui Ginga Domei?). The Alliance is engaged in a perpetual war with a tentacled alien species known as the Hideauze ( Hidiazu?). Sixteen year old Ensign Ledo is a soldier in the Galactic Alliance, piloting a Machine Caliber (Mashin Kyariba?), an artificial intelligence automated, humanoid shaped battle suit, which he refers to as ''Chamber''. After a failed attempt by the Alliance forces to destroy an enemy super weapon, Ledo is knocked into a wormhole and loses consciousness. When he awakens, he learns from Chamber that he has been in cryo stasis for six months while his wounds were healing. Ledo learns that he and Chamber have been ''found'' by a rag tag band of ''primitive'' human scavengers. Ledo quickly discovers that he is on board a massive fleet of ships on an ocean covered planet. Chamber tells him that local star charts reveal the planet is Earth, the birthplace of humanity, a place that members of the Alliance were only familiar with from stories and believed was a myth.
