Storyline
In the 91st century, humanity constructed space colonies and relocated to the stars. However, the environmental control system of the colony cluster "Little Japan," situated on the far side of the Moon at LaGrange 2, abruptly failed, triggering its core, "Dire 51," to turn against humankind. Dire 51 launched aggressive assaults on other colony clusters, gathering resources and wreckage to reinforce and expand its own settlements. The massive, eerie eyes of the enemy became a symbol of terror and dread. Although numerous research teams rushed to uncover the reason behind Dire 51's breakdown, no definitive cause was ever determined. In the meantime, Dire 51 developed a formidable armor and launched a full-scale assault on Earth. The conflict on Earth escalates, plunging the world into chaos. To counter the invading forces, Earth makes its final stand by deploying the MUSHA unit.
