Series Synopsis

The Earth is fighting a secret war against alien invaders. Despite the odds, humanity has managed to turn the tables and are winning the fight. This is all thanks to their ultimate weapon, Android V1046-R Mahoro (voiced by Ayako Kawasumi).

After years of constant combat, Mahoro’s life energy is almost depleted. As thanks for her indispensable work, Mahoro is given the chance to live her final days as a normal human. Though knowing nothing but battle, she does hold one dream dear to her heart.

In the civilian world, Suguru Misato (voiced by Fujiko Takimoto) lost his parent at a young age. Since then he has only known loneliness. Too bad that doesn't keep the house clean. So he decides to hire a live-in maid. Suguru is beside himself when the applicant turns out to be the beautiful Mahoro. 

Though their meeting would appear random, Mahoro chose to be at Suguru’s side. Her time may be short, but she plans to give every second she has left to Suguru. All the while fearing a past that is sure to be coming back to haunt her.
