A mysterious mecha hovers silently over the desert, prompting a tense standoff. Meanwhile, at a secret Galactor base, five ruthless trainees annihilate the old Blackbirds to earn their place in Katse’s twisted plans.

An alien signal in Antarctica ignites a brutal battle with Galactor and the arrival of the Phantom Ascendency—evolved scientists whose towering Spire promises salvation, power, and a future the Science Ninja Team may not be able to stop. The future of the world changes forever in this bold new chapter of Gatchaman.

As the Gatchaman world reels from the Phantom Ascendency’s “miracles,” a new Galactor hermit-crab mecha tears through a restored rainforest, forcing the Science Ninja Team into an uneasy team-up with Light, Mirror, and Veil to stop a catastrophe. Unfortuantely, trust is the most dangerous weapon of all in this escalating countdown to Miracle Day.
