Story Synopsis
In the deep silence of space, the planet Mars hisses with death. On Earth, a mysterious virus is devastating the human race. To find a cure and give humanity a fighting chance of survival, a multinational team of genetically modified citizens must race to the Red Planet and uncover its secrets. What awaits is the bloody aftermath of a colonization attempt gone horribly wrong--hordes of hyper-evolved cockroaches known as "Terraformars" roam keen to kill. Earth's chosen stand ready for combat and ready to change the course of human history. The question is which species can unite for victory.
This series is quite popular in Japan but I don't know if its holding the same prestige in the west.
I wasn't much of a fan of the series to be honest. While the concept seemed really cool, it never really resonated with me enough. I'm sure fans will love this package for sure.
