Seiji, a boy who grew up in Japan’s lowest class area called Kamajika, stands up to destroy this crazy world.
The setting is 2041. Japan has recovered from the great disaster of the century 15 years ago and has developed science. At first glance, Japan seems to be the same as it is now, but the problem of poverty is accelerating and the gap between rich and poor is widening.
In a scientifically advanced society, it seems unimaginable that people who can no longer live above ground due to poverty would drift into the underground.
It has become a lawless area. People are free to enter, but are never allowed to exit, and those who attempt to escape are forced to stay near the entrance.
“Kamajika” is a nightmarish place where people are murdered. The main character of this story is Seiji, a 15-year-old boy who was born and raised in such a place.
It’s a public figure.

A large hole created by a major disaster. Under the pot underground. Together with Tooru, who was abandoned by his parents and thrown into the “Kama basement”, he rescues Souma, a genius scientist who was orphaned by a disaster 15 years ago.
