Description: Space Runaway Ideon
Space Runaway Ideon begins in the year 2300, where mankind has ventured far into space and has advanced to the point where entire planets are finally colonized. An amazing discovery is made on the Planet Solo. Three vehicles are discovered, each having the ability to combine and transform into a powerful godlike robot known as the Ideon. A giant spaceship is also discovered.
Six months pass and restoration on the machines begin. But the vehicles fail to operate, until they receive help from an alien civilization known as the Buff Clan. Karara, the Princess of the Buff Clan, joins the colonists against the orders of her superiors. This leads to a misunderstanding between the Buff and the colonists.
Cosmo Yuki is the first person to finally operate the Ideon, and fends off the Buff assault. A war soon begins between the colonists and the Buff, who constantly pursue the Ideon and its mysterious power source. Cosmo stays as the Ideon's pilot, and discovers the terrifying power the Ideon wields. However, the battle takes a horrible toll on the crew, and the outcome of this hopeless battle may or may not end in even more bloodshed.
