A race of cannibal monsters called the Shokujinki exists and it is the job of the Kifuuken, an elite group of beast-hunters, to stop them. Toshihiko Momota, an expert swordsman and son of the Kifuuken organization's leader, unexpectedly falls in love at first sight with a beautiful girl named Yuka. However, the couple's relationship is much more complicated than it seems at first glance, for Yuka is a Shokujinki.
A great series from the director of mind game; a love story coated in total craziness! A must watch for all those tired of all the clichés in anime.

Although I love Japanese cinema, my anime exposure has been pretty poor, beyond the obvious ones (Akira, Cowboy Bebop, etc.) and I tend to avoid a lot of it.
This show is pretty fucking great.
As a director he has always been such a great and original artists. I loved Mind Games and this is the same quality of work. =
Love this one, one of my favorites, I specially love the first picture, looks so cool.
nice
