Coppelion (Japanese: コッペリオン, Hepburn: Kopperion) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Tomonori Inoue. The story follows three high school girls who were genetically engineered to be impervious to radioactivity and sent to Tokyo after the city was contaminated by a nuclear accident. It was serialized in Kodansha's seinen manga magazine Weekly Young Magazine from June 2008 to May 2012, and later in Monthly Young Magazine from May 2012 to February 2016, with its chapters collected in twenty-six tankōbon volumes.

An anime adaption by GoHands aired from October to December 2013 in Japan with a simulcast airing on the same day in Asia on Animax Asia. Viz Media has licensed the anime for streaming and home video release in North America.

Plot[]

In 2016, a catastrophe occurs after a nuclear meltdown from the nearby Odaiba nuclear power plant contaminates Tokyo, forcing the government to order its citizens to evacuate. Twenty years later, in the year 2036, Tokyo has now become a ghost town due to the high levels of radiation which the government has banned entry for anyone. When a distress signal is received from Tokyo, the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force dispatches three teenage high school girls from the Dispatch 3rd Special Force Coppelion, who comprise the "Healthcare Team". Due to genetic engineering, the Coppelions are immune to radiation while also possessing special skills. Thus the Coppelions journey to the ruined capital to find survivors.

The leader of the Coppelion Rescue Unit who possesses super strength and enhanced athletic abilities. She is a very accurate shooter with guns. She is a kind person, as indicated by her ready desire to help people and her reckless usage of the panacea "Ether" in saving those affected by the radiation. Although she initially used to take nutrient injections in place of consuming food like Haruto, she tasted a rice cake and appreciated normal food, consuming normal food after that, again like Haruto. She is the only character to speak in a Kansai dialect. In episode 11 of the anime, it is hinted that there might be a relationship between her and Haruto.

A happy-go-lucky member of the Coppelion Rescue Unit. Aoi is a good listener, willing to hear other's problems. She used to be bullied by the Ozu sisters back in school, leading to her intense fear of them. She possesses an escapist mindset, locking herself up in a storeroom of the planet in her belief that she impedes everyone else's work. She takes a liking to the robot Nosense, a guide to The Planet. She apparently possesses psychic abilities to the extent of levitation and force field production, but cannot finely control it. Under such conditions, her physical strength is increased but doesn't remember it.

Voiced by: Satomi Akesaka (Japanese); Shelby Lindley[3] (English)
A member of the Coppelion Rescue Unit who possesses heightened senses, especially eyesight, so much so that she has to wear special spectacles to tune down her vision.

The Coppelion Healthcare Team, composed of Ibara Naruse, Aoi Fukasaku and Taeko Nomura, who are teenage girls who have been genetically engineered to be immune to nuclear radiation, are sent to an abandoned and contaminated Tokyo after the JGSDF receives a distress signal from the city. After finding a survivor, who is dying from high levels of radiation, Ibara chooses to save the man and gives him a cure despite orders from her superior officer and vice-principal, Colonel Onihei Mishima, not to do anything. After the survivor is airlifted to safety, Aoi and Taeko question themselves as to whether they are even human, which Ibara assures them that they are. The next day, as the Coppelions continue to search for the origin of the distress signal, Onihei shows a live news feed of the power plant, also known as the Sarcophagus, that had caused the nuclear meltdown twenty years ago. While Taeko goes to befriend a wild dog, Ibara and Aoi discover a survivor's body who died by suicide, only Ibara and Aoi to be attacked by a feral wolf. After tranquilizing the wolf, Ibara and Aoi fear that the dog Taeko has befriended might be feral as well and go to rescue her.

Ibara and Aoi find the dog injured and Taeko taken hostage by a survivor, having to subdue him as a result. The survivor, Mitsuo Kawabata, asks for their help in finding his daughter Miku, bringing them to an underground home, where a ration truck used to come weekly for survival. He, his wife Yukiko and his late wife, who is Miku's mother, were prisoners who escaped during the confusion of the meltdown, due to why he did not call for help. Mitsuo, believing Miku might be at her late mother's grave in a stadium, takes Ibara and Taeko there while Aoi stays with Yukiko. Meanwhile, Onihei learns that the hazmat suit from the survivor they rescued has better protection than theirs. Ibara and Taeko discover that Miku is not in the stadium and learns from Aoi that Yukiko has disappeared. After learning from Aoi that Yukiko went to prison for killing her own child and wants to be a better mother for her stepdaughter, Ibara realizes that Yukiko took Miku hostage because she did not want to leave Tokyo. Thanks to Taeko's dog, the Coppelions track Yukiko to a leaning hotel, where she reveals that her husband would be arrested, leaving their daughter alone, if they were to be rescued. After convincing Yukiko for her stepdaughter's sake, half of the hotel collapses, but Ibara is able to save Miku due to Yukiko's sacrifice. Hoping to get Mitsuo from the stadium, Onihei sends Ibara by helicopter, but due to the stadium's dangerous radiation levels, Mitsuo slowly dies while remaining grateful to the Coppelions for rescuing his daughter. Before Onihei leaves with the girl, Aoi apologizes to Miku that they could not save her parents, but they must go to find other survivors.

The Coppelions meet the man who has been delivering supplies and hazmat suits to the survivors, Dr. Denjiro Shiba, whom the girls learn from Onihei to be the scientist who designed the Obaida Nuclear Power Plant. Feeling responsible for the meltdown and how not all the survivors could escape Tokyo, Denjiro tries to make amends by helping the survivors. However, with high level radiation spreading recently, Denjiro and his assistant Kamata are unable to deliver supplies to the survivors, which led them to use a distress signal to call for help. The Coppelions decide to help Denjiro rescue the other survivors, but after he agrees to surrender himself to the authorities. Ibara tries to rescue an old woman named Granny Ayame from a museum, but discovers that she has been kidnapped by two mercenaries for having seen them. Ibara tracks them to military airfield, where the mercenaries try to bring Granny Ayame into their B2 stealth jet.

After a wild chase during which the jet attempts to kill them, Ibara manages to shoot it down after which it crash lands into a lake stadium. When the Coppelions arrive at the stadium, the mercenaries had just died. As they investigate the jet, they discover barrels of radioactive waste in the lake, now realizing what was going on. The mercenaries were working with Yellow Cake, a recycling waste company who had secretly been dumping radioactive waste from around the world into Tokyo, knowing no one would be coming there, which ended up causing the recent rise in radiation levels. Ibara becomes angry upon learning about this, while Denjiro feels that everything is his fault and wants to atone for his faults. Fearing that Denjiro might kill himself, Ibara tracks him to a shrine only to find him removing his helmet. With only ten minutes before the effects of the anti-radiation properties of the Ether bullet injection are gone, the Coppelions quickly drive him to the airfield to be evacuated by Onihei. However, the helicopter has yet to arrive. Denjiro tells everyone to just let him die to atone for his sins, but Ibara refuses. With a few seconds left, Onihei's helicopter arrives. He throws another Ether bullet to Ibara in order to save Denjiro. As the helicopter gets Kamata and Granny Ayame on board, Onihei helps Denjiro get on board despite Denjiro being indirectly responsible for his family's death during the meltdown. Denjiro apologises to the girls for the world they now live in and gives them a list of the other survivors in Tokyo. As the Coppelions continue their mission, Aoi and Taeko assure Ibara that they will always be there for her.

The Coppelions manage to rescue the Kajiis who are then picked up by their friends from the JAXA facility, Oyakata Kurobe and Gennai Ishikawa in an AFV. Taeko is shot protecting Ibuki and Ibara requests a medevac for the two. However, Prime Minister Natsume, upon learning the remnants of the First Division are still alive, refuses to send any rescue until the First Division is eliminated.

Ibara, realizing the Ghosts attacked the JAXA survivors in order to lure the Coppelions in a trap to capture them, heads with Oyakata to the First Division base at a park to rescue Aoi, where she manages to hold Kunikida at gun point and orders him to release Aoi. Ibara, hesitating to shoot Kunikida, is beaten by his troops. She is saved when Haruto arrives on his AMV and retrieves her, while he is forced to leave Aoi behind. After Ibara regains consciousness, Haruto mentions not to worry about Aoi. Thanks to a transmitter that Haruto placed on Aoi earlier, the Ghosts are tracked at a nearby water treatment plant to retrieve barrels of radioactive waste. Ibara and Haruto begin their plan to rescue Aoi while Gennai and Oyakata distract the troops. However, Ibara is shocked to learn that Haruto and the Cleanup Crew were trained to kill people, which she is against. Despite Haruto killing some troops, Ibara hopes to rescue Aoi without killing anyone, but she is caught by Kunikida. To her shock, Ibara learns that the First Division's bodies have mutated and adapted to living in the radiation, hence they do not fear dying.

Meanwhile, Haruto interrogates Kunikida, who reveals that the Ghosts are planning to detonate the Sarcophagus after collecting it with radioactive waste in order to create a countrywide nuclear fallout as revenge against the government for abandoning them, which is why they want the Coppelions since the radiations levels at the Sarcophagus are too high. Despite the Coppelions' warnings to Onihei, the government refuses to act while the expo is ongoing, fearing the news will make Natsume lose face to the international community. When Ibuki reveals the baby is coming and the government will not send a medical specialist to deliver the baby until after the expo ends in two days, the group heads to a hospital in the center of the capital, while Aoi stays in the Planet in the care of the robotic caretaker Mr. No-sense. While still keeping an eye on Kunikida, Haruto tries to contact his teammates, Kanon Ozu and Shion Ozu, but to no avail.

Kanon survives the blast and stuns Ibara using her powers of electricity. Kanon reveals her hatred of humans came after eavesdropping a conversation between Haruto and Onihei that the Coppelions will someday die. With humans using them as dolls, Kanon wants them to die so the Coppelions will be the new dominant race. However, Ibara is unswayed and defeats Kanon by using an electric cable to diffuse her powers. As Ibara leaves Kanon and Shion tied up, No-sense consoles Aoi.

With Ibuki experiencing more labor pains, Taeko is afraid of delivering the baby until she is contacted by Granny Ayame, who would guide her through the procedure of childbirth. As the Coppelions and the survivors prepare to evacuate the Planet for their escape plans, everyone has one last dinner inside the dome, where Aoi finally comes out thanks to No-sense. Before they leave, Ibuki asks the Coppelions to rescue one more survivor, the baby's father named Tarou, who is revealed to be the First Division soldier who helped Aoi escape.

Oyakata rescues Haruto and Gojiro, yet Haruto begs to spare Kunikida and leave him alive. With the power to the train finally restored and the storm coming, Haruto and the rest of the maintenance team speed up the train. Noticing a lamppost is about to fall into their path, a seriously injured Haruto jumps out to stop it from falling and tells the rest to get the other survivors.

Meanwhile, upon learning Ibuki is having difficulties delivering the baby, Taeko decides to perform a Caesarean section to save both mother and child. Ibara breaks down in tears upon learning of Haruto's death, but Aoi consoles her for the sake of all the survivors as they still need to help them escape from the capital. Ibara thanks Aoi and tells the survivors to get in the radioactive proof railcar as the train will enter a wall of radioactive fog. Elsewhere, Shion survives from being crushed by the rubble from the ceiling. Although Shion feels unbearable pain to the point of wishing for death, Kanon sympathizes to her for not knowing what pain actually feels like, due to having powers of electricity.
