It drops you into a war that's already been lost. No buildup, no last stand you can root for, just 2085 and cities ground into rubble by an East versus West exchange, and the killing machines both sides built still walking the wreckage looking for stragglers. The cruelty of it is structural: fans who sat through Sigma Narse watched the Solnoids and their enemies annihilate each other over a grudge nobody could explain anymore, and now their descendants on Earth are running the exact same program with different flags. The bleakest detail isn't the machines, it's that the surviving human factions still can't stop hating each other long enough to fight the things hunting them. This one OVA is the hinge that turns the whole space opera into a tragedy, and it lands harder than a bridge chapter has any right to. Hand-painted 1989 mecha, no irony, no comfort, and an ending that just sits there.

Earth lies in ruins. In 2085, a third world war between East and West has left the cities as heaps of rubble, while killing machines built by both sides hunt the last humans. Old grudges between factions keep them from resisting together. A single plan offers survival: evacuate to Mars Base, rebuild there, and prepare to take back the home planet. Among the survivors is a young woman weighed down by her father's part in civilization's collapse, unaware that she may hold the key to rescue. Far in the past, the Solnoid race perished in its final war, and now their descendants on Earth face a grim fate of their own as a new Gall Force forms around her.
