A Japanese high school is rocked by the arrival of an enigmatic, charismatic, and highly mysterious transfer student named Mishima Zero (Michieda Shunsuke). This white-haired 19-year-old begins telling classmates that he wants to bring down the current world order – created and run by adults – and build a new future. He asks them to join his cause, and help put an end to the world they know.

Many of the school’s more disgruntled, depressed, and rebellious students begin to flock to Mishima Zero’s cause – some of them seemingly falling under his charismatic spell. They create a group called Mars, as they begin on their destructive quest. Teachers and some students, however, are less keen on Mars’ talk of revolution. Mars finds itself on a collision course with those unaligned with its values – but who will prevail?

It is the summer of the third year of high school, and the normally straight-laced 17-year-old Umi Sakura (Mio Yuki) finds herself strangely attracted to Mahiro Harukawa (Yuki Inoue), an older classmate who has become the school’s biggest rebel. With his outstanding dyed hair and his sneering attitude to authority, teachers and fellow students alike think that he is trouble. But Umi Sakura and Mahiro Harukawa share unhappy memories of abuse at the hands of the adults in their lives, and their difficult pasts draw them closer together – even though he warns her that his love could be tinged with darkness.

They soon find a strange and troubling quest to share, when they come across a voice message left on a cellphone answering machine. The message is from a boy who appears to be telephoning Santa Claus, although he gives some shocking information and makes an unsettling Christmas request. As they look into the message, they realize that originates from a number that technically could not make calls. The deeper they look, the darker the mystery becomes – even threatening to derail their young lives…
