A story about two boys on opposite sides of a war, forced to understand each other before either can save what they love. The show builds its entire weight on that single relationship, letting philosophy and politics matter only because they matter to Jomy and Keith as people. By the end, you realize the real enemy was never the other side, it was the systems that made them enemies in the first place, and neither boy survives unchanged by that knowledge.
Humanity abandoned Earth generations ago, scattering across colonized worlds under absolute control by an omnipotent computer system. But evolution has quietly birthed something new: the Mu, humans with extraordinary psychic abilities hunted and despised by their "normal" counterparts. The Mu carry a collective vision of paradise, a return to their ancestral homeworld. Jomy Marquis Shin is a boy raised by loving parents, eagerly awaiting the birthday that will mark his entry into adulthood, when the ruling AI erases the memories of fourteen-year-olds and assigns them new places in society. He has no idea that unknown powers sleep within him. Rescued by Soldier Blue, leader of the Mu, Jomy finds refuge among them aboard the spaceship Shangri-La while government forces hunt him. Years later, at the head of the Mu, he sets out for Terra, pursued by the ruthless Keith Anyan in a science fiction drama about a persecuted people and their dream of home.
