Yakitori: Soldiers of Misfortune - Season 1
Season 1
Akira Ihotsu is a young man who spends his days rebelling against an oppressive society on a future Earth, which is ruled and controlled by Shoren, the Pan-Star System Trade Federation. One day, he is scouted by Pupkin, a "cook" for Shoren, and volunteers to join the planetary orbital infantry force "Yakitori" — a brutal unit whose missions average a shocking death rate of 70%. Along with misfits from several other nations, Akira makes a stand against his pre-determined fate.

The Rig
Magnus and his crew aboard the Kinloch Bravo oil rig are stationed off the Scottish coast in the dangerous waters of the North Sea. When they are due to be collected and return to the mainland a mysterious and all-enveloping fog rolls through.

As the crew endeavour to discover what's driving this unknown force, a major accident forces them to ask questions about who they can really trust.
