Synopsis: In 2045, the earth was polluted all over the world by the Corlaps liquid. World War III broke out, involving the entire world, over housing and food, which are the most primitive desires of humankind. The world after the end of the war was already devastated. While civilization is on the verge of perishing, the war and the resulting labor shortages have prompted advances in mechanical technology. As a result, a "doll" that imitated a human being was created. Its appearance, which aims to provide various services to humans, is no different from that of a human girl, a mechanical life-form with abilities that far transcend humans. That is the "doll". And as the technology developed further, "tactical dolls" with guns that matched the dolls were adopted by all military organizations. Meanwhile, the AI of the military company "Iron-Blood Kozo" suddenly rebelled against humankind, and the battle with the tactical dolls of the private military company "Griffin" trying to investigate and prevent it, begins. The members of the "AR platoon" made up of the finest tactical dolls belonging to "Griffin", are at the same time regaining order in each region with a human commander and protecting the safety of humankind. We will unravel the huge mystery behind the war. What the tactical dolls are waiting for after a fierce battle ...
