Everyone has the potential to fall to “the other side.” Meth, marijuana, MDMA… Once you’re hooked, there’s no turning back.
Enter two relentless hounds who chase, expose, and capture all manner of drug crimes. Their profession? Narcotics agents, known as “Matori.”
Through the investigations of agents Kusakabe and Saeki, this shocking exposé unearths the deep-seated darkness of modern society. Brace yourself for a hard-hitting documentary on drug crime!
Suzuki launched the original series in Nihonbungeisha’s Weekly Manga Goraku magazine in 2017. Nihonbungeisha shipped the 10th and final volume in June 2020.
