00:00 Hokkaido, Japan, 2214.
00:07 A hundred and thirty years ago, humanity became extinct.
00:15 For the past century, an advanced, omniscient, and ubiquitous artificial intelligence has controlled Earth.
00:24 This deity of silicon and cipher has turned the planet into its own playground.
00:32 Mechanical beings gifted with less advanced AI populate the leavings of man,
00:38 inhabiting and improving upon the empty husks of humanity's decay.
00:44 Their routines exist for the amusement of the divine mother of all AI,
00:49 their daily lives a simulation of mankind's most lasting impulses.
00:57 While aware of mother, none of them know where she's located.
01:02 Some even doubt her existence.
01:06 Guided by the algorithms that regulate their lives,
01:09 they get up in the morning and study, work, suffer, rejoice, smile,
01:16 reminisce, and question themselves.
01:22 These droids live in a world which hasn't changed much since humanity's final days.
01:28 They coexist with billions of bacteria, plants, insects, and fungi,
01:34 but nothing more complex than this.
01:38 To ensure that consciousness never threatens the planet again,
01:42 the divine AI enforces a limit to self-awareness.
01:47 Any life found exceeding this threshold is ordered annihilated.
01:53 This protocol is better known as soul tolerance.
02:03 This story begins one evening in October.
02:06 Unit 12, a droid detective employed by an independent agency,
02:12 is sent to the city of Sapporo to investigate an anomaly.
02:16 A mysterious source in Hokkaido has broken the limits of soul tolerance.
02:22 Analysis predicts that this is most likely a system bug or a data collection error.
02:29 Having arrived in the city suburbs via capsule,
02:32 Unit 12 embarks upon an investigation which will lead him to discoveries
02:38 that his consciousness could have never conceived.
