About this title

A dystopian sci-fi action manga that pays homage to the classics. Future Japan has became a volatile mix of cultures, rocked by the protests of xenophobic extremists. A brash, job-hopping young woman named Riko happens to save the life of a boy named Eito. Just as they're about to dig into some celebratory ramen, plant-like tendrils snake out from Eito's arm and stop a bullet in mid-flight. Who in the world is this boy, and why is the army after him?!
