About
the work
The plot
follows Shizuka, a young woman who accepts the most dangerous
murder assignments in the underworld, although she is not the one who pulls the
trigger. The real enforcer is her older brother, Nagi, a lethal
killer who was left in a coma and confined to a wheelchair after being shot to
protect her. However, Shizuka discovers that the only way to make her brother
temporarily awaken from his slumber is to expose him to outright murderous
intent, thus unleashing a violent journey of recovery as they face the worst
criminals.
The
original work, written and illustrated by mangaka Manabu Yashiro,
began publication through Kodansha's Magazine Pocket digital
service in November 2022. The serialization was subsequently transferred to the
pages of Monthly Shonen Sirius magazine in November 2024,
accumulating a total of nine compilation volumes in the Japanese market to
date.
