| Anime Summary / Synopsis: Jyu oh Sei is an adventure and drama anime about twin brothers, Thor and Rai, who must fight for their survival on a dangerous prison planet. The story takes place in the future where the human life expectancy has been drastically reduced; the only way to live into old age is to undergo special implant surgery. Thor and Rai lived on a space colony with their parents who were well known figures. While Thor is strong and impulsive, Rai is weak and shy and often relies on his brother to protect him. They return home one day to find their parents murdered. Military-like commandos incapacitate the twins and transport them from the space colony to a remote prison planet. The planet is covered with jungle, but is filled with giant carnivorous planets. The convicts and outcasts on the planet were left to fend for themselves. Simply put, the strong survive the weak die. Thor and Rai awaken on the planet with only a light blade to defend themselves with. The twins meet a group of boys led by a young man named Zagi. Zagi advices Thor to abandon Rai because he is a burden and will not survive for long. Thor rejects Zagi’s words but also realizes he spoke the truth. In a lapse of judgement, Thor abandons Rai only to realize his actions were wrong. He returns but is unable to prevent Rai from being swallowed by a carnivorous plant. Thor learns that the people on the planet have formed groups referred to as ‘Rings.’ The leadership position of any Ring is held by the most powerful fighter, but his or her reign can always be challenged by another member. There is only one to leave the planet and that is to become the ‘Beast King’, the person who controls all the Rings. Thor makes it his goal to become the King and leave the planet in order to confront Odin, the person responsible for the murder of his parents and Rai and his exile to the planet. Thor is joined by Tiz, a girl who fell in love with him, and Third, a mysterious man who abandons his high position in his Ring in order to join Thor. But while Thor’s aspirations are grand, his time is limited because he was exiled to the planet before receiving the life extending implants. Planet of the Beast King anime screenshots:
