| Summary | Shota, a young Japanese boy living in Soviet Vladivostok, faces an unsettling reality when he and his sister Mariko visit Dr. Ivanov’s enigmatic 'House of Artificial Humans.' What begins as a peculiar exhibition of mechanical marvels soon twists into a nightmare. On their journey back to Japan, Mariko vanishes, replaced by a sinister doppelgänger — an artificial human created in Shota's own image. Now, with a mysterious detective by his side, Shota must navigate a world of treacherous secrets, where seemingly innocent children are instruments of sabotage, and an unseen enemy threatens to plunge Japan into chaos. As explosions rock national infrastructure and sinister forces conspire, Shota races against time to rescue his sister and uncover the terrifying truth behind Dr. Ivanov's creations. Can one boy stop a mechanical menace before his country crumbles? |
