This story celebrates the 150th anniversary of Yokohama City. On the planet Abel, humans and robots live together. When a mysterious stowaway attempts to invade the planet aboard a transport ship, he’s caught by Apollo (Hayato Ichihara),a robot who looks human, and Mikaru (Aya Ueto),a human who resembles a robot. The stowaway carries a memory chip loaded with advanced camouflage software called "Cipher." Apollo takes the chip on a whim, unaware of the trouble it will bring. Soon, he begins acting strangely, but Mikaru doesn’t realize Cipher is the cause-or what it even is. As they dig deeper, Apollo and Mikaru uncover a mystery that spans time itself, revealing secrets about their past, present, and future.
