Humans and robots cohabitate in the grand city-state Metropolis, but the anti-robot factions want that to end! After the destruction of the lab of a rebel scientist working on robot technology, detectives find Tima--who appears to be a beautiful, mute amnesiac, but is really a top-of-the-line android created to take over Metropolis.
