Zoids Chaotic Century - S01E09 - The Valley of the Monster

Zoids: Chaotic Century is set in the far reaches of the Milky Way on Planet Zi. On Zi, there are metallic life forms known as Zoids, which possess powerful fighting capabilities. Throughout the recent history of the series, Zoids have been used as weapons in an ongoing war between the Helic Republic and the Guylos Empire. The setting of Chaotic Century is a few years after the most recent war between the Helic Republic and the Guylos Empire. At the beginning of the series, the two nations were observing a ceasefire, although both sides had occasionally initiated ambushes and minor assaults. The series is largely set in a desert environment, although many other, mostly rural, locations are visited and re-visited as the plot progresses. The setting is dominated by wartime themes, and most of the technology and infrastructure featured in the series are seen in a militaristic context.
