The story takes place in 20XX when a nuclear accident has left Japan contaminated with radiation and killed about 90% of its population. The 3rd Division of Japan's Ground Self-Defense Force has assembled a special forces unit called "Coppelion" that consists of three highschool girls: Naruse Ibara, Fukasaku Aoi, and Nomura Taeko. These three girls have been genetically engineered so that they are impervious to radioactivity, and now they have been assigned a mission to rescue the survivors in the ruins of Tokyo.
