Synopsis

In the Tokyo of the future, the police force has been privatized and the armor-clad cops have traded in "to serve and protect" for "to sever and impale" as a policing motto. But even deadlier than the cops are the engineers, psychotic genetically mutated killers whose bodies can morph into grotesque weapons. They're so dangerous that a special team of cops has been created to hunt down and kill engineers. Chief among the hunters is Ruka, a demure young lass with a penchant for cutting herself and slicing bad guys in half with her samurai sword. But Ruka herself is being hunted by Key Man, the mad scientist responsible for creating the engineers. As Key Man's creations run rioting throughout the city, slaughtering prostitutes, gangsters and regular folks with gleeful abandon, Ruka's investigation leads her to confront dark secrets about her own past--and a realization that she may have more in common with Key Man and his engineers than with her police brethren.
