STORY: Betrayal and death ignite a catastrophic battle between two species, both fighting for survival. The passionate humans and the ancient Shadow Angels each believe they are righteous in their cause. The fallout from a soul-shattering clash 12,000 years ago continue to rain down, shaping the course of history.
The Shadow Angels have been capturing humans to collect their bio-energy, prana, essential for the restoration of the devastated city of Atlandia. As the Earth crumbles, children born with elemental powers emerge, offering humanity of a glimmer of hope. In an attempt to fight the Shadow Angels, humans unearth the legendary weapon called the Vector, a force that defeated The Shadow Angels 12,000 years ago. Operated by teenage boys and girls with elemental abilities, the Vector machines merge to form the legendary mechanical angel robot Aquarion, the last hope for humanity's survival.
