OVA
Description
Leina Stol originates as a robotic heroine from "Machine Robo: Revenge of Cronos." After crossing a dimensional barrier, she transforms into a human form with fragmented memories, emerging as Leina Haruka, a 16-year-old schoolgirl in modern-day Japan. Adopted by Kirai Stol, chief of the Cronos tribe, after her discovery on planet Ursus during conflict with the dark magician Baltun, Kirai raised her alongside his biological son, Rom Stol, training her in Tenkū Chūshin Ken.
Initially isolated in her human life, Leina resonates with classmate Nami Kojima’s obsession with a prophecy about a sword-wielding girl destined to ward off darkness. Discussions with Nami about the "Three Girls of Aileas" legend and symbolic objects like a broken fob watch trigger Leina’s suppressed memories. When the entity Tide Tyrant abducts her friend Yuko and manifests through their teacher Sonoda, Leina reclaims the hidden Wolf Sword Ken Rō at her school. This act partially restores her identity and abilities, enabling her to summon a version of her former armor and combat Tide Tyrant. Visions of Rom and mentor Guardi reinforce her resolve during the battle, allowing her to break free from illusions and defeat the enemy.
Her journey continues as she searches for her missing brother and allies across dimensions. On Electronic Planet B-1, she reunites with Rom, Rod Drill, Blue Jet, and Triple Jim—now human organ beings—besieged by the wizard Velt Zaruk and his sister Myra. Leina coordinates with local explorers Shuli and Rall to reach Rom, battling Myra’s mechanized serpent Dahl. When the Wolf Sword begins purging Zaruk’s brainwashing from Myra, Leina hesitates to kill her, showing mercy and advocating for redemption. This culminates in a joint effort with Rom to destroy Zaruk’s corrupted mech.
In her final confrontation on Ursus, Leina faces Baltun, who has devastated the planet and resurrected Zaruk. After Rom sacrifices himself to save her—revealing their non-biological sibling bond as he dies—Leina is emotionally shattered but guided by Rom’s spirit. She recharges the Wolf Sword independently, freeing her captured allies and leading them against Baltun’s corrupted Baikanfu form. Summoning Rom’s armor, she defeats Baltun despite his illusions exploiting her grief. The conclusion sees her accepting Rom and Guardi’s enduring presence through the Wolf Symbol as Ursus renews.
Throughout her arc, Leina evolves from a disoriented amnesiac to a decisive warrior. Her combat proficiency grows from initially requiring external prompts to wield the Wolf Sword to commanding its power intuitively, including cross-dimensional travel and armor summoning. Key relationships define her resilience: her profound bond with Rom fuels her motivation, while friendships with human counterparts of fallen allies ground her humanity. Her character balances vulnerability in loss with unwavering resolve in protecting others.
