Plot
The special of the day is Variable Geo, a brutal battle between waitresses who serve up generous portions of energy blasts and vicious side orders of murderous martial artistry. For buffed beauties who make below-minimum wages, VG is the perfect way to make some fast cash. The victorious walk away with millions, and the defeated lose everything (namely, all their clothes). But this high-stakes sport has dark forces and dubious practices behind the fun and games. Lethal injections make steroids seem like vitamins. Instead of team prayer, there's demonic possession. Athletic sponsors are malevolent corporations with a more frightening agenda than increased market share. It's all just part of the game.
As the story unfolds, it is gradually revealed that Miranda Jahana, once the true power of the Jahana Group now deceased, had secretly created a splinter group within the Jahana Group shortly before her death without her daughter's (Reimi Jahana, now the current president of the Jahana Group) knowledge. The goal of this splinter group was twofold: to find and enhance the most powerful female warrior on Earth and to resurrect Miranda Jahana through this warrior. Members of the splinter group, all of whom worked at various levels and departments of the Jahana Group company hierarchy, were absolutely loyal to Miranda and highly secretive in their efforts to resurrect their leader. By the end of the Variable Geo OVA, the devices containing Miranda's consciousness were destroyed by the V.G. heroines, the files for the Miranda project were also destroyed, and all members of the splinter group were either arrested or killed.

Famous quotes containing the word plot:
““The plot thickens,” he said, as I entered.”
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
“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)
“If you need a certain vitality you can only supply it yourself, or there comes a point, anyway, when no one’s actions but your own seem dramatically convincing and justifiable in the plot that the number of your days concocts.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
