PLOT
The utopian city of Zalem dominates the horizon as it soars high in the sky. It has a foul underbelly known as The Scrapyard beneath it, where the city stores all of its trash. Humans and cyborgs are able to make a living by using any means possible among the enormous piles of trash. A doctor who specializes in fixing cyborgs, Daisuke Ido, comes across the head of a young girl cyborg while rummaging among an assortment of broken android components. He gives her the name Gally and then starts to make her a new body. Gally appears to have no memory of her previous existence upon activation. But as long as she sticks at Ido's side, she doesn't seem to mind. She quickly learns, though, that Ido also works as a hunter-warrior, a bounty hunter for the government of The Scrapyard. She chooses to become one herself despite Ido's advice, reawakening her long-forgotten fighting skills. Gally is determined to fight through The Scrapyard's alleys and beyond, gathering pieces of her past in an effort to rediscover who she really is.
