Plot
Taking place many years after the Successor of the Earth, Star Successor reveals that there are two dimensions present within the universe: Inner Space and Outer Space. In Inner Space, there are multiple Earths, watched over by beings known as "The Creators" (literally referred to as "God" in the Japanese version). The creators have guided mankind to defend these planets and fight, destroying mankind whenever it strays from its destined path by attempting to bring peace. Outer Space sends invaders to deal with Inner Space, and sends an agent in the form of a human girl to infiltrate Earth-4. An agent of Earth-5, Isa Jo, is sent to find and kill the Outer Space infiltrator, only to find that the girl has become infatuated with humans due to amnesia, aside from knowing that part of her name was "Chi." Naming her "Kachi," Isa decides to protect her and help her live, something which goes against the creators' wishes. As a result, the creators send out a group known as the Nebulox (G5, or the "Group of Five Countries" in the Japanese version), led by Isa's former ally Deko, to kill Kachi and Isa for his betrayal. Adding to this are the beings known as the "Keepers," lifeforms which have worked to destroy any supposed contaminants to Earth-4, which have attacked humans and invaders. Isa, having denounced the creators for their cruelty, goes on the run with Kachi to escape the Nebulox, board an Air Ship, and stop them once and for all. Throughout the game, Isa and Kachi's attempts to escape are thwarted by the Nebulox until they eventually decide to face them head on. Eventually, Isa changes into a ruffian form, similar to Saki in the original Sin and Punishment, but he merges with Kachi in order to control his new power. Shortly thereafter, they meet up with the Nebulox in space, defeating them for good. In the aftermath, Isa decides that he will stay with Kachi even though they will be hunted again by The Creators. The final scene ends with Kachi's memory returning and her revealing to Isa that her real name is Achi, implying that she is actually the antagonist-turned-protagonist from the original Sin and Punishment.

Famous quotes containing the word plot:
“There comes a time in every man’s education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that he must take himself for better for worse as his portion; that though the wide universe is full of good, no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given him to till.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Ends in themselves, my letters plot no change;
They carry nothing dutiable; they won’t
Aspire, astound, establish or estrange.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“The plot was most interesting. It belonged to no particular age, people, or country, and was perhaps the more delightful on that account, as nobody’s previous information could afford the remotest glimmering of what would ever come of it.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
