"A great civilization once existed on this Earth. Possessing knowledge and scientific prowess far exceeding that of modern man, the relics of this ancient civilization remain hidden across this world even now."
"As high-speed communication networks cover the globe and the peering eyes of satellites are able to expose all secrets, the armies of great nations clash as they seek to uncover and research these artifacts, which possess an unfathomable “power.”"
"A member of this ancient civilization carved a message into a plate: “Protect our relics from evil-doers.” Taking this message to heart, one organization aims to seal away this ancient civilization for good.
The elite secret agents of this organization are known as…Spriggans."

My memories will ALWAYS be of the 1998 feature anime film by Studio 4°C, which I had missed the opening 5? 10minutes to (?) at a local film festival back in the day, when I was always willing to forgo a film if I missed the "beginning", thinking I'd be able to find this movie again "later" .... And over a decade later, I actually DID see the DVD on the shelf! But by the time I returned, the shop had already closed (for good), and I have never been able to watch the film, at all. Even now, I refuse to watch the trailer for the 1998-film, in case I REALLY want to watch it, but cannot ... Heh.
