| Summary | Lieutenant Sosuke "Fireball" Rokujo, a legendary, one-armed pilot, yearns for the front lines. Instead, he’s assigned to a crucial night surveillance mission, tethered above the imperial capital. But routine turns to nightmare when his balloon is deliberately cut loose, hurtling uncontrollably into the vast, freezing night sky. Trapped at dizzying altitudes, Fireball discovers he’s not alone. A cunning Soviet spy, Kinchakofu, has infiltrated the gondola, his desperate agenda now dangerously intertwined with Rokujo's survival. As the uncontrolled vessel drifts further into the unknown, two sworn enemies must confront unforgiving elements, dwindling supplies, and a deadly, escalating conflict between them. Will either survive this impossible journey, or will the sky itself claim them both? |
