Seven Seas Entertainment is releasing the manga in English, and it describes the story:
Murder is on the rise, and the bodies keep piling up. For police officer Isogai Shiro, solving these killing sprees is his sole purpose. He’ll stop at nothing to find these deranged murderers and has thrown himself entirely into the investigation.
So when a mysterious informant begins tipping off the police about serial killers before they strike again, Isogai sees a chance at a breakthrough. But the source isn’t at all what he expected: a young woman named Hinata Kuroi who seems to have a “sixth sense” that helps her find killers.
Together, this unlikely duo dives into the city’s darkest corners, hunting monsters in human skin. Because for Isogai, this is more than justice—it’s personal.
Iguchi and Nakamura launched the manga in Kodansha’s Good! Afternoon magazine in June 2024. Kodansha published the manga’s fourth compiled book volume on March 6. Seven Seas Entertainment released the first volume in English on March 17, and will release the second volume on August 18.
