Plot

In 2016, a catastrophe occurs after a nuclear meltdown from the nearby Odaiba nuclear power plant contaminates Tokyo, forcing the government to order its citizens to evacuate. Twenty years later, in the year 2036, Tokyo has now become a ghost town due to the high levels of radiation, because of which the government has banned entry for anyone. When a distress signal is received from Tokyo, the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force dispatches three teenage high school girls from the Dispatch 3rd Special Force Coppelion, who comprise the "Healthcare Team". Due to genetic engineering, the Coppelions are immune to radiation while also possessing special skills. Thus the Coppelions journey to the ruined capital to find survivors.

Script error: No such module "Nihongo".
Voiced by: Haruka Tomatsu (Japanese); Erica Lindbeck[3] (English)
The leader of the Coppelion Rescue Unit who possesses superhuman strength and enhanced athletic capabilities, and is a very accurate shooter with guns. She is a kind person, as indicated by her ready desire to help people and her reckless usage of the panacea "Ether" in saving those affected by the radiation. Although she initially used to take nutrient injections in place of consuming food like Haruto, she tasted a rice cake and appreciated normal food, consuming normal food after that, again like Haruto. She is the only character to speak in a Kansai dialect. In episode 11 of the anime, it is hinted that there might be a relationship between her and Haruto.

A happy-go-lucky member of the Coppelion Rescue Unit, Aoi is a good listener who's always willing to hear other's problems. She used to be bullied by the Ozu sisters back in school, leading to her intense fear of them. She possesses an escapist mindset, locking herself up in a storeroom of the Planet in her belief that she impedes everyone else's work. She takes a liking to the robot, Nosense, a guide to the Planet. She apparently possesses psychic abilities to the extent of levitation and force-field generation, but lacks any fine control over them. Under such conditions, her physical strength is increased but her memory shuts down during those incidents.
