Plot of 86:-


The Republic of San Magnolia had been fighting the Giad War for nine years. 


Although it initially lost tragically to the Legion's Autonomous Mechanical Legion, the Republic has already developed its own independent institutions, called Juggernauts, which are remotely controlled by Handler.


 While at the top the public believes that war is fought between machines, in fact, the Juggernauts are tested by humans, all of them "86" - a name given to the small Colataata group of San Magnolia. 


The 86 initially had equal rights, but were oppressed and defeated by the Alba race and the Alba-supremacist Republic government until Colataata were officially elected and considered inferior. 


86 were not allowed to have their names and were impaled in the study camps in the 86th district (their names); all this time they were forced to fight in the war against the Republic and the State in order to get better treatment.


Major Vladilena "Lena" Milizé, a well-respected Alba man and a soldier in the San Magnolian army, is an outspoken activist against the mistreatment of a few Colataata people, deliberately deceiving the Republican government in general.


 He has been given the position of commander of the Eastern Front Spearhead Squadron: an elite unit made up entirely of 86 veterans who have received nominations. 


Led by their group leader, Shinei "The Undertaker" Nouzen, the Spearhead Squadron is notorious among military officials. Its popularity stems from the state in which it has left its leaders: The ruling party has gone mad and some have even committed suicide. 


Lena, who was sympathetic to the 86 sympathizers, knew the Spearhead Squadron during her time as head of the team. At the same time, Lena and Shinei learn a dark secret: The Republic and the war with the State are not the only thing to be seen.
