A stylish, high-energy crime thriller set in a fractured dystopian Japan, where a civilian's entanglement with a criminal crew accelerates toward an increasingly dark and ambiguous fate.

Many years ago, a Great Civil War ravaged Japan, leaving the country fragmented between two regions: Kansai and Kanto. In Kansai, a group of six Akudama carry out missions given to them by a mysterious black cat, while evading the police. But a dangerous journey is about to unfold when a civilian girl becomes twisted into the Akudama's way of life and witnesses their criminal drives.
