86 - Eighty-Six (Vol. 1)

In a world where drone warfare has created a facade of safety, the Republic of San Magnolia presents a chilling reality masked as a utopia. Amidst the ongoing conflict with the feared Giuan Empire, the citizens remain oblivious to the true horrors of war. However, hidden beneath this illusion lies a harrowing truth: the lives of young people, known as the "86," are expendable as they are sent to fight in unmanned combat against the enemy.

Within this dystopian setting, the story unfolds through the eyes of those deemed less than human, grappling with their fate while confronting their oppressors. The narrative dives into themes of identity, sacrifice, and the brutality of war, revealing the emotional and moral complexities faced by the characters. As the lines between right and wrong blur, the reader is drawn into a gripping tale that challenges perceptions of heroism and the cost of an unending conflict.
