[edit] Story
In the peaceful aftermath of the Nozsa wars, the charismatic heroes known as "The White Knights" have changed career paths to becoming music making rockstars. J.J., Dave, Champ and Apple have formed a rock band called, "The White Nuts". Their music career would soon be interrupted by a new threat of colonial settlers. Apple is kidnapped by the sadistic ODAMA Clan - a family of ruthless killers. Located in a heavily-fortified mountain retreat, J.J. and company attempt a rescue mission with their laser weapon Zillion.
[edit] Concept
The 1 episode movie was released as a spinoff to capitalize on the success of the previous TV series Zillion anime as well as the two video games Zillion and Zillion II. The OVA was not stretched into a full length series since the Light Phaser was only as marketable as the life span of the Sega Master System itself.
