The robot anime show was produced by Sunrise's Studio #9, the crew responsible for the big hit "Ryvius" series. Premiered in October, 2000 on TV Tokyo, the series is set in the near future (year 2059) where the planet Earth's space exploration programs are put to stop by an alien invasion. In order to combat the invading force, an international organization called FUNERAL tries to utilize the alien technology by reconstructing an alien hardware from some spare parts they've obtained. This results in the creation of a bio-mechanical machine/being called... "Frank". He's huge, sentient, and he can kick the alien butts like nothing Earth-made can... This volume contains episodes 7 & 8.
