To understand the significance of Episode 3, one must appreciate the premise of Virgin Mission . Set years before the events of the original 1997 classic, the series features a teenage Aika Sumeragi. She is not yet the hardened, cynical professional of the future; she is a rookie who has just obtained her C-class license. She is spirited, slightly clumsy, and eager to prove herself.

This sets up the original Agent AIKa (which chronologically happens later) but leaves R-16 feeling like a self-contained summer adventure.
