Synopsis
In the distant future, the nature of war has changed. "Objects"—massive, spherical tanks impermeable to standard weaponry and armed with destructive firepower—rule the battlefield; their very deployment ensures victory, rendering traditional armies useless. However, this new method of warfare is about to be turned on its head.
Qwenthur Barbotage, a student studying Object Design, and Havia Winchell, a radar analyst of noble birth, serve in the Legitimate Kingdom's 37th Mobile Maintenance Battalion, tasked with supporting the Baby Magnum, one of the nation's Objects. Unfortunately, a battle gone awry places the duo in a precarious situation: mere infantry stand face-to-face against the unfathomable might of an enemy Object. As they scramble to save themselves and their fellow soldiers, a glimmer of hope shines through, and the world's perception of Objects is changed forever.
Heavy Object follows these two soldiers alongside Milinda Brantini, the Baby Magnum's pilot, and their commanding officer Frolaytia Capistrano as the unit treks all over the globe to fight battle after battle. Facing one impossible situation after another, they must summon all their wit and courage to overcome the insurmountable foes that are Objects.

Editor's Review
“Heavy Object” is a captivating anime series that takes us into a future where warfare has been revolutionized by the invention of mechanical weapons known as “Objects”. These Objects are not just massive, they are overwhelmingly powerful, rendering traditional weapons like guns, tanks, and fighter jets completely useless.
The series is set in a world where wars are fought between these giant mechs, each uniquely built with advanced weaponry. The very deployment of these Objects ensures victory on the battlefield, making conventional armies obsolete. This new method of warfare has changed the nature of war, with battles virtually reduced to duels between Objects.
The story follows two regular soldiers from the Legitimate Kingdom, Qwenthur Barbotage and Havia Winchell. Qwenthur is a student studying Object Design, and Havia is a radar analyst of noble birth. They serve in the 37th Mobile Maintenance Battalion, tasked with supporting the Baby Magnum, one of their nation’s Objects.
However, a battle gone awry places Qwenthur and Havia in a precarious situation: mere infantry stand face-to-face against the unfathomable might of an enemy Object. As they scramble to save themselves and their fellow soldiers, they manage to destroy an enemy Object using their smarts and ingenuity. This event changes the world’s perception of Objects forever. It proves that Objects created by man can also be destroyed by man and not just by other Objects.
The series follows these two soldiers alongside Milinda Brantini, the Baby Magnum’s pilot, and their commanding officer Frolaytia Capistrano as the unit treks all over the globe to fight battle after battle.
