A really long time ago, a mysterious seed appeared from the heart of the earth’s forest.
With the appearance of the seed, the forest dragon awakened from the moon.
As the dragon unleashed itself the entire moon was left destroyed. The dragon then made its way
to the earth destroying anything and everything along its path. The earth was left devastated,
the civilization destroyed and the human race brought to the brink of extinction.
Several hundred years later, Japan is now a dystopia with the forest covering almost all
of its land. The whole country is surrounded by the forest on all sides and this was no ordinary
forest. The forest had a mind of its own and could act of its own free will. The forest is governed
by druids who are responsible to govern the water resources for both the forest and the humans that
are still alive. Amongst the druids and the ever-expanding forest live the few humans who
managed to survive the disaster several hundred years ago. There are two major cities in the new
world; Ragna and Neutral City. The neutral city is located in the heart of the forest,
right above the pool of water that supplies water to both the forest and the humans.
It is carved out into the ruins of the destroyed sky scarpers of the past.
The city, as its name suggests, is a peaceful city that believes in the coexistence of humans
alongside the forest. Ragna city, on the other hand, is a military-based
city that is located in the desert area of the country. Ever since the city was built
it has only aimed to take over the country and eradicate the ever-expanding forest.
One day, two young boys Cain and Agito, of the Neutral city, decide to race each other to see
who reaches the pool of water at the bottom of the city first. The two boys haphazardly race
through the city taking care to avoid waking the guard who was guarding the pool. Cain and Agito
get a bit too carried away with the race and end up splashing themselves into the pool.
The boys are soon surrounded by the druids who are angered by the boys disturbing the
sanctity of the forest pool. Cain quickly starts apologizing but Agito once again dives into the
pool to escape the other way around. As he goes deeper into the pool he gets dragged into the
current of a large waterfall and stumbles into a deep cavern within the pool.
As Agito looks around, he suddenly finds a large machine hidden inside the cavern.
He climbs onto it to examine what it was and finds several cryogenic pods. As he
examines further he accidentally opens up one of these pods. Inside the pod is a young girl,
almost of the same age as Agito, asleep. As the pod opens she too wakes up still a bit confused
as to where she was. Agito looks at her but doesn't seem to be fazed by her appearance or
the fact that she appeared from inside a machine. Before agito could explain anything to her,
the cavern starts flooding with the water from the pool, and the two are forced to escape. There
are no real ways out for them but the girl uses her special tool called Raban, to unlock one of
the mechanized doors which allows them to find a way out of the cavern and out into the city.
When they finally reach outside, the girl introduces herself as Toola
and the two get acquainted. She looks around at the dystopian city before her.
Almost immediately Agito, Cain and Toola are summoned before the leader of the neutral city,
Yolda. She punishes Agito and Cain to work with the salvage team for a week after which Toola
is brought before her. Yolda tells her that she wasn't the only human who had woken up from the
machine which explains why Agito wasn't scared to see her. There was another man called Shunak
who was also like her but he had already left years ago for Ragna. Yolda gives her a choice
to live in Neutral city and assigns Cain, Agito, and their friend Minka to take care of Toola.
Toola starts spending time in Neutral city and gets along pretty well with agito
and the others however her mind still doesn't seem to understand the new world.
She uses her Raban to contact others like her but gets no response. She was all alone and it
bugged her almost as if all of this was her fault. Agito goes to calm her down and introduces her to
his father. His father and the father of Cain and Minka are enhanced humans. Enhanced humans
are humans who have received powers from the forest spirit. Their hair had turned white and
they gained exceptional powers. The two are the humans who had taken powers from the forest and
created Neutral City. However, taking powers from the city meant that eventually, the powers had to
be returned back to the forest. Agito’s father was at the end of his life now and he had started to
transform into a tree and return back into the forest; this was the price to pay for the power.
The old man glances once at Toola and realizes the predicament she was in. He simply tells her to let
go of the past and be happy with what she has now but Toola however is still not convinced.
Elsewhere, Shunack receives the signal from Toola’s Raban and sends some men to find her
location. The men come all the way to Neutral city and end up staying in the local inn.
An ignorant Minka who works in the inn lets the people know of Toola’s whereabouts. Soon,
Shuncak who was now a general of the Ragna forces arrives at the gates of Neutral city to take Toola
with her. Shunack introduces himself to Toola as her father Dr. Sakul’s friend and tries to
acquaint himself with her. Toola is still confused about herself and Shunack takes advantage of this
and manipulates her to believe that with her and her raban they could save the planet and bring it
back to what it formerly was. Agito tries to stop Toola from leaving but he is not strong enough to
fight against Shunack who was also an enhanced human. During his stay at the Neutral village,
back when he was first revived from his sleep, he too had taken powers from the forest.
Shunack takes toola away with him. As they travel through the desert tracks and head to Ragna,
Shunack reveals the true cause of the forest growing in the world. Several centuries ago,
Dr. Sakul was working on the afforestation program of the earth and they had decided
to mutate the plant cells in such a way that they could grow rapidly on their own.
Their base of experimentation was on the moon. However, the experiment had gone south and the
plant mutation had taken a different route. They had gone berserk. And soon the moon was
destroyed and the earth was left to its ruins. There was still hope, however,
with the raban that Toola has, they could still find the environmental defragmentation system,
E.S.T.O.C which could restore the earth back to its former glory according to Shunack.
As soon as they reach Ragna, Toola, now convinced by Shunack’s words, uses her raban to locate the
E.S.T.O.C. The location is revealed to be nearby the mountains in Neutral city.
Elsewhere, Agito’s father passes away and his soul fuses with the forest spirit. After his
passing Agito also heads to the forest in hopes that he could find some way to bring Toola back.
He makes his way to the heart of the forest and stumbles upon the spirits of the forest.
The spirits are adamant that Toola will bring nothing but destruction upon their world and
Agito tries his best to convince them otherwise. He tells them that he would save Agito no matter
what and asks for their power to help him. The forest spirits are skeptical about this but they
decide to lend the power of the forest to Agito. Soon Agito too transforms into an enhanced human
with white hair and superhuman abilities. With his new powers, Agito immediately rushes to
Ragna. He even encounters some of the soldiers along the way but is able to beat them pretty
easily. He can slice through entire tanks and even missiles. Agito reaches the Ragna base just
as Shunack and Toola discover the location of the E.S.T.O.C. The soldiers there however are
a bit too smart for him as they don't shoot him with regular bullets. They shoot him with bullets
containing a gas that makes him unconscious. When Agito wakes up he is bound to huge chains
and locks around his hands and legs and is unable to move. Toola stands before him apologizing for
his situation and issues him that she was the only hope for the old world to return, a world
where the forest was under human control and not the other way around. Agito watches in agony as he
watches Toola leave with Shunack right before his eyes. As soon as they leave a soldier arrives to
put Agito out of his misery. Agito struggles to get the chains off his hands but fails to do so
until suddenly his hand starts transforming into a human-plant hybrid with exceptional power.
It becomes a replica of the Hulk and he easily escapes the chains. With his mutated arm intact
he chases after the train in which Toola and Shunack were heading to Neutral city.
The speed of the train is no match for Agito, who almost immediately catches up.
Shunack however manages to disassemble the back of the train just in time and cause an accident
leaving Agito behind in the rubble. By the time the accident happens they had already reached
nearby Neautral city and so Yolda quickly rushes to Agito’s rescue. She notices him getting out
of control and the forest taking control of his body and warns him that if he used
too much power he would be one with the forest spirit just like his father. Hearing this, Agito
calms down and his hand returns back to normal. He then heads out once again in search of Toola.
Elsewhere Toola and Shunack reach the location of the ESTOC. The Ragna general sent with them
is excited and wants to accompany them inside but Shunack had never planned on helping the Ragna
people with their ambitions he had a plan of his own. He announces his betrayal proudly and walks
inside the ESTOC alongside Toola. Immediately, Toola uses her Raban to start the ESTOC.
However, she soon realizes that the ESTOC would not bring the world back to its former self,
it would just destroy all life on the planet including the forest. After the mass destruction,
the people from the past who were asleep in the pods like Toola before,
would awake and find a new world to inhabit. Shunack also reveals that he was the one by whose
carelessness the genetic modification of the plant cells had failed and the earth was destroyed. He
wanted to make amends for his actions and this was the only way. Toola tries to stop him but he
is an enhanced human and too powerful for her. The mountain where ESTOC was located turns into a
massive weapon of mass destruction and starts causing havoc all around. Since it is nearby
the neutral city; it heads straight to it. The previously betrayed forces of Ragna and Cain’s
father from Neutral city work together to help the citizens to safety and prevent the ESTOC
from moving further into the city. During all of this, Agito arrives inside the ESTOC and confronts
Shunack. Shunack is simply too powerful for Agito to handle so he is forced to use the full power
of the forest. It turns him into an actual tree but he is able to absorb Shunack within himself.
While Shunack is distracted trying to escape Agito’s trap, Toola goes and stops the ESTOC
from causing further havoc. She uses the raban to initiate an auto-self-destruct sequence.
She returns to take Agito with her but finds that he has already converted into
a tree and is united with the forest spirit. Despite becoming one with the forest spirit,
Agito's consciousness remains intact in another dimension. Shunack is there too,
but having become one with the Forest, Shunack is now at peace and no longer intends to fight Agito.
As Agito goes around the place the Forest reveals to him the truth about the relationship between
itself and the humans. Agito learns that the genetic admixture that gives humans
extraordinary strength and eventually turns them into trees is actually a two-way exchange.
This meant that once an enhanced human was created by the forest it not only changed the humans but
also changes the Forest. This causes the trees to give birth to new humans in giant fruits.
Realizing that Agito can teach humanity that there is no need for either hostility
or separation between themselves and the trees, the Forest returns Agito to his true
form and sends him out from the tree. Toola is extremely happy after seeing him alive
and well and the two manage to escape the destruction of the ESTOC just in time.
With the humans and the Forest saved, peace is once again restored in the world.
In the end, Toola finally lets go of her past by throwing her Raban off a ledge. She vows to learn
to live in and love the world that she was in. Most of the time, we as humans are really
frightened of change. But, we must always remember that as humans it is in our nature to adapt
and learn to appreciate what is around us. Appreciating the value of what we “have”
and not dwindling on what we “had” is the only way to achieve
true happiness. Subscribe for more videos like this,
