Twelve-year-old Nandaba Naota's older brother has departed for America to play baseball, leaving the confused Naota alone with his brother's 17-year-old girlfriend, Samejima Mamimi. It doesn't help that she flirts with him constantly, or that his brother has sent him a rather disturbing letter from America. When the tomboyish Haruhara Haruko enters the scene, running down Naota with her motorscooter before smashing him over the head with her guitar, things will never be the same again. |

Rent | In the late 20th century, tremendous advances in robotics led to the development of the "Labor". Replacing slower, less versatile industrial equipment, the Labor was also capable of inflicting mass destruction. Virtually unstoppable by conventional police units, the labor quickly became the weapon of choice for terrorists, criminals, and seriously disturbed sociopaths. To fight these criminals, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department established the "Special Vehicles, Section 2," comprised of specially designed Patrol Labors--"Patlabors". |
