Pseudo Spoiler
Eden of the East is about a mysterious contest hosted by an unknown man, who calls himself Mr. Outside. He's chosen twelve contestants, dubbed Selecao. Each is given 10 billion yen and an advanced cell phone. They are told to save Japan, the first to save Japan is awarded a continuing life, whereas those who don't win are assassinated by the supporter. The supporter is one of the twelve Selecao, who assassinates those who break the rules. Juiz is the cell phone operator, you can ask Juiz for anything, Juiz does what you ask, in return, she deducts from your balance of 10 billion. The 10 billion cannot be turned into cash. Those who do not use the money to save Japan will be assassinated. Those who run out of money will be assassinated. Those who do not succeed in their mission (obviously save Japan) are assassinated.
If that doesn't interest you, watch the opening sequence.
Sadly it's been removed.
At the very least, you have to admit it's a nice opening sequence.
