The story takes place in the year 2097 and in the city of Xenon. An ultimate cyber game, where players fight as bio-mechanical cyber robots, has been developed. However, there's something wrong. The game's cyberspace and the real world are linked. The damage that occurs in the game's cyberspace creates destruction in the city of Xenon. This all started when players heard a painful scream, saw a ghostly face, and a powerful scent of lemon overcame them. To solve this mystery, the creator of the game assembles a "Dream Team," which is the top three gamers in all of Xenon. The team is composed of rebellious and arrogant teens, who, have to overcome their attitudes and fears to find the answers, answers to the mystery that are much bigger than just the game.

Where it came from
BASToF Syndrome emerged from the early 2000s surge in interest regarding digital animation within the anime industry, produced by the South Korean studio Grass Valley Entertainment and distributed internationally by ADV Films. It was conceived as a high-concept science fiction narrative centered on a virtual reality environment, reflecting the era’s burgeoning cultural fascination with the implications of the internet and immersive simulated worlds.
The series is noted for its experimental use of early 3D cel-shaded animation, an aesthetic choice intended to bridge the gap between traditional anime styling and modern computer-generated graphics. While the ambitious visual approach was a departure from conventional techniques at the time, the series received mixed critical reception, often cited by enthusiasts for its unique stylistic identity rather than its narrative pacing.
