A lesser-known anime title that still packs a punch - both story-wise and in the style it uses across three tales. All three are top-notch offerings from a futuristic space salvage tale that turns to tragedy after answering a distress call from a ghost - to a humorous tale of an everyday-man who becomes a walking bio-weapon - to the final, and I would say most powerful - tale of a cannon-based city constantly at war with seemingly no one. If you have enjoyed classic anime in the vein of Akira or Ghost in the Shell or even more modern offerings like the Netflix Love Death + Robots - this is a worthy offering to seek out.
