Chihiro

While chasing a group of enemies linked to his father's death, Chihiro Rokuhira traverses a city ravaged by enchanted weapons dealers. His katana in hand, his mind filled with resentment and silence, is all he can think about. But that evening, at the turn of an alley, he comes across Helena, a young wounded woman, fighting alone against the same men he is hunting.

Intrigued by his determination and mastery of combat despite his injuries, Chihiro steps in to help him. Together, they eliminate their attackers in a brief and brutal fight. After the battle, he discovers that Helena is also seeking revenge—not on her father, but on her brother, who was murdered by the same organization.

The bond between them is first born out of mistrust and pain. But behind Helena's cold gaze, Chihiro senses a rage he understands, and a humanity he had forgotten. As they decide to join forces, Chihiro feels an emotion he hasn't experienced in a long time: something fragile, burning, that could change everything.
