In Paradigm City—a bleak, amnesiac metropolis enclosed by giant domes where every citizen lost their memories 40 years ago—Roger Smith continues his work as the city's premier Negotiator. Accompanied by the android Dorothy Wayneright and his faithful butler Norman, Roger pilots the ancient, towering megadeus known as Big O to protect the city from rogue robots, criminal syndicates, and enigmatic threats. But as rival megadeus pilots surface and mysterious, surreal phenomena tear at the fabric of reality, the secrets behind the city's lost memories begin to unravel. Roger is pushed to the limit as he confronts foreign agents, existential crises, and the disturbing truth about Paradigm City itself—where the entire world may be nothing more than a grand, staged illusion.

Produced by Sunrise (Cowboy Bebop, Mobile Suit Gundam) and directed by Kazuyoshi Katayama (Giant Robo, Appleseed) with iconic concept design by Keiichi Sato (Tiger & Bunny), The Big O II (Season 2) is a masterpiece of retro-futuristic art deco noir, hardboiled detective drama, and giant robot combat. Financed in part due to massive demand from American fans on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, this second season ramps up the intrigue, delivering mind-bending twists and cinematic mecha battles accompanied by Toshihiko Sahashi's dramatic orchestral score. Released on DVD by Bandai Entertainment, this collection delivers the gripping conclusion to one of anime's most unique cult classics.
