The chime signaling the end of the work day rings throughout the Hyuga Corporation building. As he heads to the Genesis Café, Dan hides his excitement of finally being able to throw aside his dreary salaryman persona for the rider he really is at heart. After fueling up with a giant plate of napolitan spaghetti, he dons his zebra-striped rider backpack, and sets out on nighttime Route 246 for Sangenjaya on a personal delivery run for his aunt, Sanae.
Meanwhile, Hyuga Corp. is in the final stages of developing the next application of its artificial muscle fibers, the “Marishi Machina,” a new powered suit utilizing an electronic interface and artificial muscle fibers to give people with just an average level of physical fitness the superior skills and abilities of a very select group of professional athletes.
As the one in charge of the suit’s development, Kotaro is anxious to complete the project quickly. Then, a call comes in from his subordinates. They have located the “Zebra.” Kotaro dons the Machina suit himself and heads out into the night in pursuit of Dan.
What are Kotaro’s motives? Who is Makina, and why is she lying in wait for them?
A new story is about to begin...
