Overview

A powerful necromancer known as the Corpse God meets his end on a distant battlefield—only to open his eyes in the body of a young man in modern-day Tokyo. Trapped in an unfamiliar world, he must navigate city life while fending off assassins from the realm he left behind. The story blends dark magic, crime intrigue and off-beat humour as the anti-hero forges an uneasy alliance with a local hacker. Their uneasy partnership sets the stage for clashes between secret societies, police investigations and resurrected corpses.
