On a planet where all residents are cyborgs, death holds no significance due to their immortality. The inhabitants have turned funerals into a casual pastime, performing them for anyone they choose. Maetel and Tetsuro are attacked and buried alive by these locals. They are rescued by a woman named Machiru, who explains the history behind the planet's unique culture. However, the situation takes a dark turn when Machiru herself becomes the subject of a funeral, sacrificing her life to complete the ritual. The protagonists must navigate this bizarre society where mortality is a choice rather than a certainty, facing immediate danger from citizens who view death as mere entertainment.
