So the formidable Swiss robot Mount Blanc has been destroyed in the perfect future where humans and robots live together in peace. A prominent member of an organization advocating for robot rights is killed elsewhere.

Robot investigator Gesicht, one of the seven great robots of the world, is given the case by Interpol. Eventually, he learns that he, too, is a target since he is one of the seven great robots of the world.

I am excited about the birth of this new series to win over people’s hearts. I hope that now more than ever, Osamu Tezuka’s message reaches the world.”
