A dark, high-stakes thriller about an unwilling immortal hunted by both government and fellow supernatural beings, driven by paranoia and the existential burden of discovering one's cursed nature.

Kei discovers the curse of immortality when he gets hit by a bus... and doesn't die. Now on the run from a government that wants to experiment on him, and his fellow Ajin, Kei's only hope to live a peaceful life lies in his ability to learn how to use his new powers. Aided by the strength of his "Black Ghost", a once apathetic Kei must now fight to avoid becoming a cruel demi-human experiment.
