The story (as much as the prior and further manga from the author) are divided in 4 different Projects; each divided in numerous missions. For all other uses see Project (disambiguation. A project, as defined in the field of Project management, consists of a temporary The following is a brief of each of them:
Project 1 starts with a group of 15-year-old sisters entering the highly prestigious Akihabara Otoburo High School.
It's to note that, although all four were 'born' in the same date, their looks are completely different, as well as their personalities and thoughts of life. Readers meet Yoshiko Meka, a perfect reflect of the otaku culture, Yoko Meka, a cute girl who eats sweets, Kazuko Meka, the serious and nerdy sister and Minako Meka, the spoiled and fashion lover who likes dating on boys all year around. is a Japanese term used to refer to people with obsessive interests particularly Anime, Manga, and Video games. Since the 1970s has become a prominent aspect of Japanese popular culture, entertainment clothing, food, toys, personal appearance behavior and
Upon arriving from school to their house in Kyoto, where they live with their grandmother, they discover that it's been tumbled over and their caretaker is gone. (IPA /kʲoːto / is a city in the central part of the island of Honshū, Japan. The only clue is a little note sent by an unknown person to reach out in the darkest corners of Akihabara. ("Field of Autumn Leaves" also known as, is an area of Tokyo Japan When they got to the targeted place, they are stumbled by a large mechanical being which easily swats the sisters down. Word origin and usage The term "mecha" is derived from the Japanese abbreviation for the English word " mechanical " Afterwards, they are captured and taken to an underground base where scientist take them under some tests to find out if they were the ones they've been looking for. The test concludes in success and they are quickly taken to the master chief behind all and creator of such note: Dr. Yuudai Chiisai. Upon awakening, the girls are taken to Chiisai's office to "speak of something of great importance" and against their will they are dropped down to a shabby office in which the doctor speaks to the girls about their purpose, not before Yoko discovers that such person is actually a mechanical and oddly cute racoon. The raccoon ( Procyon lotor) (sometimes spelt as racoon) also known as the common raccoon, North American raccoon, northern raccoon
Chiisai tells the Meka sisters that they aren't completely human: they have within mechanical alloys that allow them to execute some abilities and have some powers that have never been seen in any human or machine. An alloy is a Solid solution or Homogeneous mixture of two or more elements, at least one of which is a Metal, which itself has Human beings, humans or man (Origin 1590–1600 L homō man OL hemō the earthly one (see Humus Each have a unique status depending on the persona and can be activated only if the person desires to. He invites them to activate their abilities and form a group to protect the Electric District as well as Japan from dangers that are starting to form rapidly in the past years. For a topic outline on this subject see List of basic Japan topics. 3 of the girls accept quickly the offer, Kazuko being the only one rejecting it because she does not desire to turn "completely machine" After reflecting such decision for a week, she realizes that she cannot escape her destiny and sooner or later she might have to use such powers. She arrives in the nick of time later, when the rest of the team is desperately fighting a new horde of robots attacking their school. The girls unite even more and decide to call themselves the Cyber Girls from Akihabara, place where they first activated their powers and bounded to protect the country.
After some missions and some "weapons of mass destruction" sprees, the girls end up easily familiarized with the 'saving the world', making it part of the routine within the attending to class and spare time. A weapon of mass destruction ( WMD) is a weapon which can kill large numbers of humans and/or cause great damage to man-made structures (e However, things get stingy when in a mission, Yoshiko is kidnapped and taken to a dark Headquarter in the outsides of the city. Headquarters (HQ denotes the location where most if not all of the important functions of an organization are concentrated There, she is interrogated by another scientist under the name of Dr. Kurosawa about the Cyber Project and its activation. Unable to tell anything (since she didn't know a thing about it), she is tortured and has her hard disk modified to obey him in all commands. A hard disk drive ( HDD) commonly referred to as a hard drive, hard disk, or fixed disk drive, is a Non-volatile storage device The CGA arrive and quickly dash to the central core of the HQ where they find their sister, only to discover that she is now fighting back against them. Kazuko uses her hacking abilities and formats her disk to stop her for once, even against the will of the hacker. While escaping the HQ, they encounter a dark silhouette which releases thousands of sentients against them. Weak, they are thought done but mysteriously Yoshiko's red orb (a round jewel that's supposed to be a memento from their mother) flashes intensely. A gemstone or gem, also called a precious or semi-precious stone, is a piece of attractive Mineral, which &mdash when cut and polished &mdash This is followed by the owner's reactivation in which she asks the girls to join their weapons in a way similar to the Power Rangers. Power Rangers is a long-running American Children's television series adapted from the Japanese Tokusatsu Super Sentai Series, though it Soon, they form the 'Cyber Cannon' and with that they shoot a wide ray that hits the central computer, enabling a chain self destruct sequence of all sentients and HQ.
The girls are salvaged by Chiisai hopped in a helicopter and taken home safely. History Since 400 AD Chinese children have played with bamboo flying toys.
This Project is also referred as CGA Origins
There is stress within the HQ where Chiisai works, he knowing that his long time nemesis had return ever since the creation of the girls. He decides to tell the girls their true origins and story: Chiisai, he being a graduate in the area of genetics, had married a woman named Keiko Kobayashi, she being a graduate of the same school but in the area of mechatronics. Genetics (from Ancient Greek grc-Latn genetikos, “genitive” and that from grc-Latn genesis, “origin” a discipline of Biology, is Mechatronics (or Mecha nical and Elec' tronics' Engineering) is the combination of Mechanical engineering, Electronic engineering Working with a college of hers, their experiment somehow went wrong and attacked them. The college had much of the damage, 'saving' Keiko from harm (or so he thought). Keiko was 6 months pregnant when such events happened and she never referred this to his husband which continued with his life normally. On the date of the birth, Kobayashi died shortly after pronouncing the name of their offspring, this last one dying 10 days later. Unable to face the facts, he took a time out from reality until an idea came up. The idea was creating babies for those who were unable to procreate or had difficulties to do so. For that, he joined forces with Kurosawa so the project could be created. Kurosawa, however, had different plans. The first 10 babies (all female) where merged with mechanical devices and endoskeleton. An endoskeleton is an internal support structure of an Animal. 3 of 10 perished in the act, 1 of them disappeared, leaving only 6. Chiisai, knowing the purposes he was going towards to, tried to dissolve and vanish the remaining girls, unable to. He shipped them to a secret lab, only to be sabotaged and taken off by Kurosawa. His former body was badly damaged and he had his brain transferred to the only robot available at the time. The brain is the center of the Nervous system in animals All Vertebrates and the majority of Invertebrates have a brain (which is why he was now stuck as he was now). Only 4 reappeared again, being the CGA
While this story kept their minds thinking, the girls had no time to waste as a new menace was reaching the city's security: Humanoid figures with the shape, figures, and even powers of the own girls. The Dubbed "Cyber Copies", apparently created from the data Kurosawa was able to grasp from his first encounter with them, when on destructive sprees that had as target capturing each girl and take them back to their master's new base. These copies resulted to be dull and imprecise against the originals, these always triumphing against them ("It's like the Pirate's Beam Troopers from Prime 1" Yoshiko says in one of the missions)
In the verge of the winnings, Chiisai is taken hostage and would only be exchanged for the secrets of the Cyber Project. is a series of Science fiction adventure Video games conceived by designer Gunpei Yokoi and produced by Nintendo. The girls have no other choice than to go, only to be confronted by the latest weapon: Unit 000. A weapon is a Tool used either in Hunting, or attack or defence in Combat for the purpose of subduing enemy personnel or to destroy enemy weapons They soon discover this is no Copy: the strength and psychical power this one possesses are incredibly high and she's able to withstand any blow by dodging them quickly. Chiisai calls upon them, telling that 000 is nothing more than another Cyber Girl. The CGA are shocked at the news, this being an affirmation from the own Kurosawa. Trying now not to hurt her so much, they fail in defending themselves as well, being at the merge of the dark scientist. As if predicted, in the last moment, the same red orb shines again snapping 000 from her dormant state. The group are later running for their lives to save their chief from a collapsing base. They find him nearby some archives that apparently someone was reading before and snatch him quickly to jump from the highest point of the building, carrying team and 2 unconscious burdens around.
The same female silhouette from the end of Project 1 watches the building collapsing with a smirk, asking Kurosawa if it was time, he negating and placing a hand upon her shoulder.
This Project is the shortest one, only lasting half of what's supposed to. Also known as the 'Joint' Project between Revelations and Revolutions.

It's been some months now and the girls (now 16) are coursing their second year in Otoburo High. Chiisai has been working hard and finally is able to recover human form, being created by some other colleges and him. Yoko doesn't seem happy with this however, she liking "fluffy" things. Also, and to everyone's surprise, he introduces another sister: Keiko Meka, a tomboyish girl who's an excellent cook and a down-to-earth one.
It takes time to adapt to this, they being used to a team of 4, screwing up in odd situations that require simple thinking. Also, the doctor reminds the situation of her: being dormant 16 years without knowing the world was had, so they had to insert her memories of living such time so she would adapt easily to the world. The girls agreed to help her into her adaptation, although they wouldn't deal with the fact that she used to live in "America" and that her country ruled upon them all. The United States of America —commonly referred to as the
Kurosawa sees the loss of unit 000 and is making a desperate move to get all the 5 units, he sending flocks of Cyber Copies (which now included Keiko's), the first display of building-size Mecha, deadly plans upon the city (including nerve gas) and ransoming upon Japan's Prime Minister. The is the usual English-language term used for the Head of government of Japan, although the literal translation of the Japanese name for the office is Prime
Keiko, while looking up stores in Ginza, stumbles with an odd Fortune Teller which predicts that not all she has believed might be the true light. Ginza (銀座 is a district of Chūō Tokyo, located south of Yaesu and Kyōbashi, west of Tsukiji, east of Yūrakuchō and While trying to get an answer for that reading, the psychic disappears, leaving great doubts on her mind. The word psychic (ˈsaɪkɨk from the Greek psychikos—"of the soul mental" refers to the claimed ability to perceive things hidden from the normal senses
Some missions later, the CGA's headquarters is finally discovered and destroyed by Kurosawa not before fleeing and warning that he would release an Atomic Bomb upon the city if they wouldn't surrender themselves and give the secrets for the project. A nuclear weapon is an explosive device that derives its destructive force from Nuclear reactions either fission or a combination of fission and fusion.
Once again, the team go towards the reconstructed HQ trying to stop such vile plan to be executed. However, during the process, Kurosawa's assistant 'captures' Keiko and tells the truth about her real life and that all has been fake. Broken and completely confused from the inside, she battles her sisters again but this time furious of such decision of imposing such lie on her head. Kazuko convinces, after a long battle, that she could understand what she felt but wouldn't wanted her to feel completely empty. Keiko replies that now she does and that it would never go away, but she would join the team again.
The girls arrive at the place and for the first time, they battle Kurosawa (he hopped on the Mecha which is supposed to trow the bomb). Yoshiko convinces and encourages her rage against him, pointing to be the one who is truly responsible for her lack of past and to not forget her current present as well. This helps destroy the mecha, but the bomb is now set to explode in 10 minutes giving time for a badly damaged doctor to flee the place. Kazuko is unable to hack the bomb's system and is Keiko who takes the lead by disabling the nuclear head with her hands. A bomb is any of a range of devices that typically rely on the Exothermic Chemical reaction of an Explosive material to produce an extremely
At the end, we see the tomboy watching at the sky, searching for a purpose.
Having been defeated 3 times, Kurosawa decides no longer to recover the girls but to execute them, calling them traitors to the project. For that, he accepts the decision of his assistant which quickly goes to do the job. Back in Akihabara, it's the girls Senior year at Otoburo and they are to spend this last year as they can, Keiko already adapted to their odd recurrences, mostly coming from the quirky Yoshiko.
Chiisai informs them later of a series of assassinations that has been growing at top rates, at the point the own mayor of the city wishes to know an explanation. The girls are dispatched to save the day once again, without knowing the real threat they are facing.
Soon, a new student arrives to school by the name of Hiroko Kobayashi, a very shy girl which seldom talks and seems overprotective over something. Yoko is the one who meets her and encourages her to do so with the rest of her sisters, which at first sight didn't look bad and later turned to actually be funny. She is the daughter of the president of an electronic company who sells chips and material for gaming consoles which quickly attracts the attention of Yoshiko, begging her to help her meet the "gods"
Meanwhile, there are new clues upon who is behind all of the killings but that won't give a clear answer: the assassin seems to be using a mix of matter and antimatter, a mix never before seen that discourages the girl a bit. A "game designer" is a person who designs Video games or one who designs traditional games such as Board games Video Games Designer A video game designer AssassiNation is the sixth album by Krisiun, released in 2006 on Century Media. Matter is commonly defined as being anything that has mass and that takes up space. In Particle physics and Quantum chemistry, antimatter is the extension of the concept of the Antiparticle to Matter, where antimatter is composed They soon are able to catch up with it, it being fast and quite more powerful than all the girls at the same time. By the way it attack they soon tagged the target as a higher and advanced Cyber Copy although Chiisai has his doubts.
On one class, Yoko invites Hiroko to have a slumber party at their Edo Period house in Kyoto; the other girls also seem happy to do so although Hiroko seems frightful at the thought but is easily persuaded. The, also referred to as the Tokugawa period (徳川時代 Tokugawa-jidai) is a division of Japanese history running from 1603 to 1868 On that night, she is seen to take a jar of pills, she saying that she has a disease. Oddly enough, the are no reports of assassination in that night.
Further on, Keiko is able to recognize that the target they are looking for is female and that she has seen her before. Upon asking why, she recalls the time when she was revealed that her past was nothing more than inserted memory. This caused a revolt within the group thinking that maybe such thing might not be a copy but a real Cyber Girl. This also awakens fear in Chiisai, thinking that maybe it might be more truthful than ever.
Kurosawa's assistant proclaims that her research has finished and that soon she would strike. He nods smirking and dispatches her to end the job.
At that same date, Hiroko has come again to the Meka's residence to tell them about a dreadful secret she's been hiding all along but is later halted by an epileptic attack. Epilepsy is a common chronic Neurological disorder that is characterized by recurrent unprovoked seizures. The team thinks is because the lack of medicine and quickly take her to the nearest hospital. There, the unknown sentient strikes again, warning that if the project isn't revealed then all the people in the building would die. Risking their identities, they transform in front of her and battle. Of course, this black armored one is much stronger and leaves them badly hurt. Although she had it win, she wasn't able to give the final blow and fled the place, screaming madly about a "meddling healer". The team recover Hiroko and take her home.
Later on, Chiisai tells them that she might indeed be part of the project and that as she is corrupted, she had to be vanquished. Kazuko disputes and leaves the place, although she also is wondering whether they have a choice.
Hiroko starts missing school, the girls thinking that her disease had worsened and decide to go to her home. There, they find her asleep although Kazuko warns not to come closer to her all of a sudden, feeling a wave of darkness upon her. Behind her, lies a smiling Kurosawa who presenters the girl as their assassin. Keiko exclaims that wouldn't be possible, since she's black armored and haired while the one present was white. At a snap of fingers, the figure shifts to the doctor's ultimate weapon: Unit 006.
006 is vicious in attacking and lacks of any pain whatsoever, so she's difficult to deal with. Also, having fought with her so many times makes her know their movements and take them one by one. They are later driven to the real HQ which was actually under the original they destroyed in which they sustain mayor damage and physical assaults. They are unable to believe that such girl could be the target they've been looking for, however, they recall that might been fake and go towards to finish her. It takes a lot of their effort but unleast they wear her enough to give some blows. This one, however, absorbs them and turn them back to the senders.
At the point where it was all hopeless, Yoshiko is able to design a plan to en cage her and launch a one single blow with the Cyber Cannon. It takes much effort and skill to pull the plan to function, losing some energy and blood in the process, but they manage to launch the full powered cannon to her. For their surprise, the Cannon Fails and it's returned with full power as well.
In the floor, the leader wonders for a solution while the enemy walks towards them ready to finish the job, but suddenly stops again in a similar way to Hiro's epileptic attack. Soon, the colors shifts and Hiroko comes back. She explains that the other one they were fighting was called Sadako and that she and her were sisters. Sadako, while still in the cybering process, was too weak to continue living, so Hiroko offered a space on her body. The result is the two sisters living in the same being. She asks them to retry the cannon in order to bring them the peace they've always wanted. | NOTE Throughout this article "cannon" is used as BOTH the || singular and plural
The team thinks about this decision, but soon learn they don't have much time, as Sadako is trying to regain control. Without much choice, the girls launch a second attack from the cannon, while 006 launches a counter that fills the place with a bright light. Light, or visible light, is Electromagnetic radiation of a Wavelength that is visible to the Human eye (about 400–700
As the last page says "After the blast, both teams were not to be seen. . . "
The following are the Characters depicted until Cyber Girls Revolutions
Around the Reloaded Project, it is mentioned the K3 system which is the way the scientist describe the AI of the team. It stands for "3 times kokoro" (kokoro can either mean mind,soul or heart) and it's divided in the obvious 3 parts. MIND ( Moving In New Directions) (est 1975 is an alternative education high school in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The soul, according to many religious and philosophical beliefs is the self-awareness, or Consciousness, unique to a particular living The heart is a muscular organ in all Vertebrates responsible for pumping Blood through the Blood vessels by repeated rhythmic Each girl have the system within, however, they tend to be mostly approached to one.
For once Minako, which is a 1 user , tends to be more logical and materialistic. Yoko, a 2 user, balances the cuteness with some of her "philosophical times" (although these tend to be more odd than ever). Philosophy is the study of general problems concerning matters such as existence knowledge truth beauty justice validity mind and language For other uses see Time (disambiguation Time is a component of a measuring system used to sequence events to compare the durations of Lastly, Kazuko is a 3 user who is supposed to be more sentimental (she tends to be very departed from the team until the end of Revolutions).
The only one that seems not ruled by any of them is the own leader, who is a mystery even to the own Creators (both Chiisai and Kurosawa).
There has been a discussion whether the Cyber Girls are a dōjinshi of the Cyber Team being that the names at first sight are the same . are self-published Japanese works usually manga or novels They are often the work of amateurs though some professional artists participate as a way to publish material outside the regular is an Anime series created by Tsukasa Kotobuki and Satoru Akahori. However, there is a marked difference between both: In the Cyber Girls, the plot is settled on 2005 towards 2008 while the Cyber Team starts in 2010, 2 years later. Year 2005 ( MMV) was a Common year starting on Saturday (link displays full calendar of the Gregorian calendar. 2008 ( MMVIII) is the current year in accordance with the Gregorian calendar, a Leap year that started on Tuesday of the Common The Cyber Team merge with their Patapies to form Divas while the Cyber Girls are already mechanical and only recall their armors for shielding and disguise features. Also, while both are located in the same city, they fight for different reasons and against different enemies. One point to note as well is that the girls have 15 when they start and the team are ranging from 12.
There were plans of making a re-edition of the original mini comic which launched the girls into stardom. The series will be re-published after the remodeling of the web page concludes. A web page or webpage is a resource of information that is suitable for the World Wide Web and can be accessed through a Web browser.
Making a plot in the hole left after CGA Revolutions, Da Mangaka is currently in the making of a Crossover Dōujishi featuring characters from The Legend of Zelda and Metroid. A fictional crossover is the placement of two or more otherwise discrete Fictional characters, settings or universes into the context of a single is a Video game designed by Shigeru Miyamoto and developed and published by Nintendo. is the first game in the ''Metroid'' series of video games It was released first for the Famicom Disk System on August 6, 1986 Originally called "The Legend of Zelda - The Metroid's Shadow", the series is created via forum chatting on Gaia Online. An, or message board, is a Bulletin board system in the form of a discussion site Gaia Online is an English-language, Anime -themed social networking and forums -based Website. The plot is settled on the many ways the Zebesians must get used to the Hylian field and viceversa, as well the introduction of more original characters and some unthinkable plot which goes from Nemesis forming allies and one of the girls falling in love with a Space Pirate Commando.
Away from this dōujishi, there are other "filler" ones which makes a crossover of the girls with other characters.
The title of the probable next and last Project of the series in which seems to be after the "Revolutions" series. It is unknown completely the plot, but a last notice on the bulletin board before Da Mangaka's web blog shut down referred to the Cyber Project true meanings. A bulletin board ( pinboard, pin board or notice board in British English is a place where people can leave public Messages for example to advertise
