Seasons & Episode
Lieutenant Kei Katsuragi, a fighter pilot, receives a mission to protect a new untested bomb, the Space/Time oscillation bomb. During the mission the bomb goes off, and it produces a catastrophe. Twenty years later, the Emaan, a group of techno-gypsies find Kei unconscious and take him with them. Kei soon discovers he is in another dimension and that the Emaan aren't human.
Mimsy, one of the Emaans, finds Kei and brings him back to the others. He discovers that the Emaan fighter planes have an anti gravity control system which makes them easier to pilot. Kei asks the Emaan to fix his Bronco and also modify it to fly like their fighter planes. Meanwhile, the Terram supreme commander puts Olson in charge of recovering Kei from the Emaan.
