Lastly, AWSM's Hiroyuki Sawano, Kohta Yamamoto, and DAIKI are composing the music.
Synopsis
The city of Kitakagami is a fairly ordinary city... except for the fact that some people then managed to get their hands on Mecha-Ude: powerful sentient mechanical beings that are attached to the limbs of their hosts. When high school student Hikaru accidentally activates Alma, a mysterious Mecha-Ude with no memory of his past, he forms an unlikely connection with the talking arm. But where did Alma come from? And why are secret organizations and shadowy corporate assassins, with their own deadly Mecha-Ude, suddenly chasing Hikaru, determined to steal Alma? Hikaru and Alma must learn to work together to uncover the truth behind Alma's identity and prevent him from falling into the wrong hands (or the wrong arm)!
Finally, CyberConnect2's Hiroshi Matsuyama is the general supervisor, TriF Studio's Shūichi Asō is the animation producer, and Pony Canyon's Tetsuya Kinoshita is the producer.
