It’s the near future in Tokyo, and the average temperature is around 170 degrees. Humanity lives underground to escape the deadly heat, only seeing the surface through the eyes of remote-controlled robots called Re:Anima. Shinano and Kara are members of the Enforcement Bureau, policing surface crime and illegal Re:Anima mods. But Kara has a secret: He lives on the surface full-time, in his real body! This original climatepunk action series from the artist behind the Gate of Nightmares manga is made in Japan, but premieres in English!

In a world where environmental conditions have forced humanity to take refuge below the Earth’s surface, “normal” life is made possible thanks to the advent of Re:Anima, artificial bodies that allow users to walk in the light of the sun—with some caveats. There are those who would seek to exploit Re:Anima technology for their personal gain, and it’s up to Kara Kamikigi, his partner Shinano Nagano, and the Enforcement Bureau to deal with these menaces. While the danger they face may not always be mortal, the peril of contending with the darkness in people’s hearts is very real…
There’s no rest for the weary as far as the Enforcement Bureau is concerned. With their next mission lined up, Kara and Shinano must go undercover to assist another agent, Harasu Sakazuki, in a major Re:Anima drug bust. It doesn’t take long for them to realize, however, that there may be more to the mission than anyone realizes, and that it might hit Kara especially close to home… Will a precious piece of his past slip through his fingers again?
