In the opening sequence, Goku takes on a sex trafficker with metal leg who's luring in naive pretty young women who believe that he's a top music producer who's looking for the next big thing. In the main storyline, a woman's brother has been turned into an extremely powerful and volatile cyborg. He needs special daily injections to stabilize his aggressive behavior, which have been growing progressively worse, as the injections are becoming less and less effective. If he continues to miss the injections, her brother will eventually permanently become an uncontrollable monster. Goku is hired by the sister to track the cyborg down before it's too late to bring him back from his crazed state. Using his eye terminal and cyber-staff weapon, Goku attempts to get to the bottom of how this all happened in the first place, and to try and find a way of preventing the brother from harming more innocent people. However, the cabal of top generals from Japan's Defense Force led by the cyborg's sadistic father, who happens to be the general who personally green-lit the supersoldier project, want their failed experiment either back or destroyed at all costs. Goku eventually begins to suspect that the girl hasn't told him the entire truth about her extremely dysfunctional adoptive family.
