Koukyoushihen Eureka seveN: Renton Thurston is tired of his monotonous life. When a UFO (termed LFO) crashes and a sole passenger, Eureka, emerges, the two begin on a journey that will change their destinies.

Livingstone: "Ninety percent of our lives are determined by our fate, and our fates are determined by our 'souls.'But every now and then, something goes wrong and the souls of those who have met an untimely fate also pollute their environs, drawing more souls into a vicious circle of ill fate. "

Smokin' Parade: The story follows Kakujou Youkou, who lives in a seemingly normal world where medical technology has skyrocketed to new heights, making it possible to completely replace any human organ.
