Chan plays a famous actor of the Chinese Theatre who becomes a legendary resistance fighter against the Japanese. This was Jackie Chan's first martial arts film.
The city of Tokyo has been overthrown taken over by invaders who have devastated the rest of the planet. For 15 years the remnants of the human race have fought a losing battle against the Mu and their Dolem knowing that the key to victory lies within the domed walls of Tokyo Jupiter where time flows in a different path and none of the mind-wiped citizens even know that the city has been conquered. But no one has been able to get into Tokyo. Until now... Prepare for the ultimate paradigm shift as one young man learns the horrifying secret in RahXephon!
Return to the world of RahXephon where human and Mu fight for dominance over a shattered Earth and giant statues are the ultimate weapons. Where music forms the fabric of the universe and the link between two hearts is the thread upon which the fate of humanity hangs. It is still a love story but it is not the same story. Not exactly... Prepare for new visions and new revelations as the other side of RahXephon is finally revealed!
As the story of RahXephon unfolds, its similarities to and differences from Neon Genesis Evangelion--the subject of heated online debates--become increasingly evident. Unlike Shinji, Ayato is curious--and suspicious about the events surrounding him. He's right to be suspicious: lurking in the shadows is mysterious billionaire Ernst Von Bähbem, who may be over 500 years old. His relationships with TERRA, the Mulians, and Ayato are only hinted at. Quon begins to discover her latent powers, although "the time of her awakening has not yet come." Music exerts a curious power in this world: Quon floats toward a great Mulian egg singing the familiar "Second Polovtsian Dance" of Borodin. The ultimate success of the series will rest on whether director Yutaka Izubuchi ties all these elements together more satisfactorily than he did in Gasaraki.
