MAIN CHARACTERS

Yuzu Yuzu
An unwitting test subject who escapes from the lab to experience the real world. She is a simple girl witha kind heart and obvious feelings for Tauro.
Tauro Tauro
Another experiment, Tauro is a human chimera: part Caucasian, part African, part Asian. He searches for a new planet, for test subjects like himself.
Hyuu Hyuu
Another chimera, Hyuu is half human, half panther. The youngest of the group, he is loud and headstrong, but cares strongly for Yuzu.
CA38 CA 38
A former robot for the government, CA 38 leaves his organization when he achieves awareness. Striving to right the wrongs of his past, he searches with Tauro.
Nada Nada R 22
Nada is an android in the body of a woman; she controls the Bremen5's spaceship, and although she appears cold, cares deeply for Yuzu.


BASIC PLOT
It is the distant future in a distant world, and humans have long been experimented on. When Tauro frees Yuzu from her small paradise world in a space laboratory, she decides to tag along behind him and help other experiments such as herself. Along with three very different friends, the Bremen 5 travel outer space seeking a planet inhabitable by humans, outside the reach of their corrupted government.
