In the Japanese science fiction film "Terra Formars," the world is facing overpopulation, prompting humans to terraform Mars. However, genetically engineered cockroaches sent to Mars for the process have evolved into powerful, human-sized creatures. A team of convicts, including Komachi and Nanao, are sent to Mars to eliminate the cockroaches but soon discover that the creatures are more powerful than expected.
The team members undergo genetic transformations, granting them insect-like powers to fight the cockroaches. However, they soon realize that their mission was a decoy, and the true objective was to retrieve a cockroach egg for the Japanese government to breed and use for military purposes.
Komachi and his team face numerous challenges, including evolved cockroach leaders and betrayal from within their own group. Nanao, who was thought to be dead, returns in a final, powerful form and sacrifices herself to save Komachi and Jin.
In the end, Komachi and Ichiro escape Mars and return to Earth, where they vow to expose the truth about the mission and those involved. Komachi also plans to honor the memories of those who died on Mars and eventually return to the planet.
