Dragon Ball

STORYLINE IN BRIEF

Humans and the youkai – demons – live peacefully in a place where both worlds have collided, with the youkai invisible to the human eye. Yurine, a youthful-looking woman and her loyal servant Karas keep to uphold peace and harmony in these overlapping worlds.

However, the humans have become arrogant and indifference towards the existence of demons that an old Karas was compelled to turn his back on what he has believed in for years and took on a human form, named himself Eko and created an army of machine demons called Mikura to strike against man.

Otoha, a young man, becomes a Karas, an armored warrior. Only people who have known great and deep sorrow can become a Karas. Otoha, whose soul Yurine claims called out for her while he was still human, became one when commanded by Yurine who clothed him in armor so thick it cannot be penetrated by anyone. Otoha has to prove himself worthy to be a Karas and must struggle to keep the balance that Eko has threatened.
