Description: Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet
Gargantia takes place in a distant future where mankind has traveled the stars. The main peacekeeping force of the Galactic Alliance of Humankind is engaged in a war with the deadly alien forces of the Hideauze. Engaged in a major battle with the enemy, 16-year old Machine Calibur pilot Ledo is overtaken by the enemy in an attempt to attack a Hideauze Superweapon. He is then knocked into a wormhole and is placed in Cryostasis for 6 months. He winds up on a strange planet with people he's never seen before. He learns that he has landed on the long lost planet known as Earth, and meets a group of scavengers that fear his more advanced technology. Unfortunately, being the fish out of water he is, ends up building an uneasy alliance with the scavengers. He befriends a girl named Amy, and she becomes his guide to this newly found civilization.
