In the bleak wasteland known as "Scrapyard," Dr. Ido works as both a physician and mechanic. During one of his scavenging expeditions, he unearths the impeccably preserved remains of a female cyborg. After restoring and enhancing her functionality, Ido names her "Gally." However, the resilient and robust Gally must navigate a hostile world without any recollection of her past. The 1993 anime adaptation of Gunnm manga, entitled Gunnm anime, covers the first two volumes.
