    Doctors Kazamatsuri and Onizuka are geneticists researching cures on diseases such as AIDS and cancer by performing experiments to strengthen the human body. The test subject is Shin Kazamatsuri, motorcycle racer son of Doctor Kazamatsuri.

However, they did not count on Onizuka’s own secret ambitions; the mad Onizuka wanted to create a new species, by fusing a grasshopper’s DNA with the test subject’s, in order to start a new civilization and be their god.
