She's been asleep for centuries, and she's about to wake up MAD.
Years after the events of Megazone 23 II, the only city on Earth is the supposedly idyllic Eden. There lives Eiji Takanaka, a B Level hacker who has just been accepted into EX, the organization that controls Eden. However, before his first day on the job, he becomes embroiled in a network war, a legendary figure named EVE, and a plot to re-inhabit the Earth.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Megazone 23 III arrived as the OVA bubble was bursting, making its incomplete status a tragic artifact of an industry in transition.
This was originally planned as a full series—hence the 'Part 1' subtitle that taunts fans to this day. The ' awakening' in the title? That's all you get. Seriously.
