Area 88 (TV)
Makoto Shinjou, a Japanese photojournalist, heads to Area 88, a remote airbase buried in the deserts of the Middle Eastern nation of Asran. He's there to document the mercenary pilots who fight the country's battles. One of them is Shin Kazama, a talented Japanese pilot who got trapped into signing a contract with Asran's air force after being conned by his best friend. The deal cost him everything—his job as an airline pilot and his engagement to Ryoko Tsugumo. Now Shin's stuck with three brutal options: complete three years of service, earn $1.5 million to buy out his contract, or desert and almost certainly get killed.
