The story takes place [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future|in the 2080s]]. In an era of advanced technology, robots are commonplace, so much so that a New Geneva Convention was signed regulating their creation and establishing limitations on the direction research and development towards their creation can take. However, after an incident involving a middle-aged man going berserk in a public area, it was discovered that a new type of robot had been released into society: "Hollow Children", androids that look like humans, act like humans, and most importantly, believe themselves to ''be'' human. Unfortunately, when they discover [[Tomato in the Mirror|their true nature]], they grow unstable and violent. Investigation throws suspicion on Yoji Amada, a [[The Hermit|reclusive genius]] in robotics and artificial intelligence, and founder of the Amada Corporation, Japan's leading manufacturer of robots. As this is a clear violation of the New Geneva Convention, the nations of the world send the "[[Punny Name|Rust]] [[Badass Crew|Crew]]", an internationally sanctioned strike team specially trained to deal with artificial beings, to infiltrate Tokyo (which is now an isolationist state), arrest Amada at any cost and put an end to the machines' uprising.
