About
Every 10,000 years, teams from all over the universe are gathered by the mysterious Avatar to compete in the Great Race of Ōban, a race with much more at stake than just honor or prize money. According to legend, the winner is awarded the Ultimate Prize, which is rumored to grant any wish, from large-scale destruction to, perhaps, the resurrection of a loved one. Some want it for glory, others as a way of universal domination. However, the true nature of the Prize is shrouded in mystery, and things are not what they appear to be…

Season 1
A Fresh Start
Twenty-five years after a mysterious being called 'The Avatar' averted war between Earth and the Crogs, Earth is invited to participate in "The Great Race of Oban", a competition held once every 10,000 years. Meanwhile, a young girl escapes from her boarding school on a journey to find the father she hasn't seen in 10 years...
Hostilities Break Out
The 'Earth Team' arrives on Alwas, site of the preliminaries and discovers that Eva, who calls herself 'Molly', has accompanied them. With no time to argue, the team competes in their first race, but disaster strikes when their star-racer explodes at the finish line. With their star pilot, Rick, out of commission and no replacements, is the Great Race already over for them?
Grave Like Groor
With no lead pilot, the Earth Team desperately searches for a replacement, that is until Molly jumps into the pilot seat and enters the next race. Even though she wins, Don Wei, blinded by his own pride, accuses her of humiliating him, and announces his intentions to withdraw from the tournament.
In Like Flint
Molly is attacked by Groor after winning their race, but thanks to some assistance from Prince Aikka, is able to make it to the next race. The race, it seems, is fixed to be in favor of hometown hero, Flint, but the tables turn and Molly wins. Later, Don Wei learns that Rick has now recovered.
Cruel Like Ceres
Rick recovers from the accident and becomes the lead pilot again, but something is wrong. While racing against Ceres, his muscles seize up and he is unable to control his hands or see clearly. Molly notices this, and races to catch up to the Arrow 2 to help Rick pilot. After the race is over, Rick is told he can never race again.
Playful Like Para-dice
Molly is now chosen to take Rick's place as the new driver. However, the team's racer is sabotaged by Paradice, a cat-like creature who views The Great Race of Ōban as nothing more than a game. After a quick repair, they race against each other, and Molly inadvertently learns about the ultimate prize from Paradice.
Treacherous Like Toros
While Rick searches for answers about who sabotaged the team's first racer, Molly races in the preliminary semi-finals against a commanding officer in the Crog army. The experience later proves to be disastrous as the Crog not only beats them easily, but destroys their racer in the process.
Agile Like Aikka
Molly and Aikka agree to a cease fire for their match, but Don Wei and Jordan think it would be better to take Aikka out. The race goes well at first with Molly keeping Jordan locked inside his turret, but near the end of the race, Jordan finally shoots at Aikka. Angering by this 'betrayal', Aikka retaliates, totally disabling the Arrow. The Prince loses all respect for Molly and her kind, and Molly, Jordan, and Don's bond is further severed.
