Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross
Choujikuu Kidan Southern Cross

By the end of the 21st century, humanity left an uninhabitable Earth behind, seeking refuge on Mars and Jupiter Bases. Their new hope was the planet "Liberte" in the Proxima Centauri system, a stepping stone toward survival as they aimed for further colonization. Glorie, in the Epsilon Eridani system, was being developed but faced harsh conditions. Yet, self-sufficiency in resources and food was finally within reach.

In 2120, a fleet of spaceships from the alien race "Zor" appeared, demanding surrender.

The Southern Cross Army (ASC), tasked with defending Glorie, found themselves at war against the unknown Zol, without support from Liberte. Young leaders like Lieutenant Jeanne Francaise, who meets challenges head-on, and Lieutenant Marie Angel, a resilient captain, along with Lieutenant Lana Izavia, devoted to duty, rallied their troops amid crisis.

Mysteries abound: Who is "Saifreet," the pilot of the advanced "Bioroid"? What secrets do the Zol hold, acting in identical trios? How does the "Flower of Life" connect to them? What truth lies behind "Musica," the alien musician who crosses paths with Corporal Bowie Emerson? And is Glorie truly the Zol's homeland? These questions drive the unfolding story.
