Megaton Musashi was conceptualized and directed by Akihiro Hino and the anime adaptation was co-produced by TOKYO MX, LEVEL5 and OLM. It focuses on the citizens of an ordinary and peaceful town who are blissfully unaware of the untold truth: that Earth has already been destroyed. 

Mysterious alien forces known as Draktor have decimated 99.9% of humanity, drilled into the earth, and terraformed a new habitat in which to live. Humans have no choice but to hide away in shelters, waiting for the day of resurrection, which may never even come.
 

The inhabitants of the shelter Ixia are living in ignorance, their memories erased following the day of destruction. They are protected by the chosen ones, the pilots of the Rogues, fighting in the war against the aliens. Today, a new pilot is to be selected.
