Story:

Ten years ago Adroc Thurston saved the world during the mysterious "Summer of Love" crisis. Today, his son Renton lives a mundane, melancholic life, attending army school and living with his adoptive parents in a small border town.

One day his life changes dramatically when Nirvash, the world's oldest LFO suddenly appears in front of him and Eureka, a young girl around the same age as him, emerges from cockpit.

The meeting is more destiny than chance; Renton and Eureka set off on an incredible adventure to discover what really happened during the first Summer of Love, how it really was the beginning of everything, and the mysterious part that both Renton and Eureka still have to play.

With the first movie, EUREKASEVEN HI-EVOLUTION 1, on it's way later this year, it's time to celebrate.
