Overview:	The feature of robots and humans...as predicted by Osamu Tezuka. "Metropolis" is the fascinating, futuristic story of the ageless class struggle in human civilization.

Set in a futuristic city at the height of its civilization, "Metropolis" tells the story of Tima--a beautiful and mysterious female humanoid who does not realize that she is a robot. It is Tima who must discover her true self and begin to bridge the gap between the humans and humanoid robots of Metropolis. Tima must stop Metropolis' dark dictator Reddoko and save the entire city.
