In Coppelion, three genetically enginneered schoolgirls enter a forsaken city decades after a catastrophe has rendered the old capital into a wasteland.  Created by the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force to withstand the toxic, contaminated environment, and trained since birth, the three girls must fulfill their mission to rescue those abandoned to the disaster.

“Ibara, Aoi and Taeko comprise the Coppelion, three genetically engineered girls that seek to rescue forgotten survivors in the smashes ruins of the Old Capital and uncover a dark secret about themselves in the process,” says Charlene Ingram, Senior Marketing Manager of Animation. “This new Combo Pack release fittingly presents the gripping series in its entirety and gives fans the opportunity to add this lushly animated adventure to their personal collections.”
