The Story So Far…

Since the death of Balzac, the Builder Planet has celebrated a long period of peace.

However, as time goes by, protein becomes scarce, and protein deficiency is soon a serious problem for the Builder Planet. As people struggle for control over what protein is left, Balzac II begins his subtle rise to power…

Learning of his return, Idaten and Benten take up arms and begin their man-tastic voyage…

“People have been raving about the benefits of protein since time immemorial and now Cho Aniki Zero reaffirms that belief!”, said Frank “Bo” deWindt II, Associate Producer, Aksys Games. “It’s time to get those muscles pumping and downing those protein shakes because you’ll need them after the hilariously fun workout that is Cho Aniki Zero!”
