summary
A forgotten old toy factory where humanoid robots, "Roboroids," continue to work. The robo-roids continue to work even after the humans have disappeared, when a toy doll, "Doll," which was once made in this factory, appears in front of them. The Robo-Loids come into contact with the dolls through the analysis function for foreign objects, and the dolls exhibit unexpected abilities due to the mysterious power they possess. Meanwhile, the dolls gradually become more human through "play" with the roboroids. Such a joyful time is short-lived, however, when one thing triggers a major outburst at the factory.
