The fight with the Martial Church had dire consequences, and Chirico now finds himself a wanderer. An encounter with a woman called Stevia leads to a reunion with old friends, but the homecoming must wait since war refuses to leave Chirico alone.
Direction
Takahashi's patient, weary storytelling—no flashy redemption arcs here.
Acting
Goda's Chirico: still broken, still terrifying, still somehow magnetic.
Practical Effects
Scopedog designs remain deliciously industrial, all grease and desperation.
Director
Ryosuke Takahashi
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Released 29 years after the original series, this OVA embodies 1980s real robot melancholy that modern mecha often abandons for spectacle.
The title 'Alone Again' deliberately echoes the original's 'The Last Red Shoulder'—Chirico's isolation isn't tragedy, it's character definition.
