He saves the girl's life, sharing his secret with her. But she's searching for the sister who killed her family, and she doesn't care how degrading it gets: she will use Shuichi to accomplish her mission... (Source: Kodansha Comics)

That is one sexy silhouette

And that's all I need to see

There's quite a lot of nudity in this, so hopefully they keep it.

my god, the manga is just.. wtf is author doing? this series is complete train wreck, gory, and heavy fanservice.. this is way more insane than killing bites and the character is soo apathetic...shame i like his previos works, but this is just not my thing.. unless this got same amount of censorship as terra formers, idon't know how it can even aired on tv.. netflix is probably best options tho.

Thank's for the information, now i know to definitely skip this.

To be honest the synopsis might be interesting but I also am getting somewhat of a weird vibe from it. But the staff looks competent enough.
