Eclair and Lumiere start as disposable cogs in a galactic bureaucracy, and the show methodically breaks them. By the time you realize what GOTT actually is, these two have already stopped being pawns and started being forces of nature. The mecha designs hit different when they're piloted by characters who've learned to see through the lies they were fed, and the soundtrack knows exactly when to make you feel the weight of that betrayal.
After many interstellar wars, humanity forms the Galactic Union to keep peace between planets, yet quarrels among its own members continue. To keep order, the Galactic Organization of Trade and Tariffs, known as GOTT, relies on the ES, a covert unit of enhanced humans who take on secret missions against major galactic crimes. Eclair and Lumiere are two of its lowest-ranked C-class agents, but their powers are formidable: Eclair has superhuman strength and a whip made from lipstick, while Lumiere can seize control of any computer. As their assignments carry them across more of the galaxy, the pair stumble onto a large conspiracy that makes them doubt what they believe about GOTT, the Galactic Union and even themselves. The show mixes science fiction and mecha action with ecchi elements.
