Giniro no Kami no Agito
Animation can contain rapid flashing, strobing, or high-contrast scenes that may affect viewers with photosensitive epilepsy. If you are sensitive to flashing light, take care — and on devices that support it, enable “reduce motion.”
Origin: Spirits of the Past
A boy named Agito stumbles upon a machine which has been keeping a girl named Toola in suspended animation for 300 years. Toola awakens to discover that the earth's environment has been radically altered due to genetic experiments that her father was involved in, and that the forest itself has become a sentient entity. Together with Shunack, another person from the past, Toola attempts to use long dormant technology to return things to the way they used to be. When Toola comes to the realization that the ways of the past should not be revived, she and Agito fight to protect the world as it has become, and try to create a balance between mankind and nature.
