Synopsis
Quinx Squad, human-ghoul hybrids led by amnesiac Haise, battle ghouls while confronting identity crises in Tokyo.
In a Tokyo where the balance between humans and ghouls grows ever more precarious, the Commission of Counter Ghoul (CCG) has intensified its efforts to maintain order. As both sides adapt to new realities, a unique unit emerges from the shadows: the Quinx Squad—humans who have undergone experimental procedures to harness ghoul-like abilities while retaining their humanity. Led by the enigmatic investigator Haise Sasaki, whose calm demeanor masks a mysterious past, this team walks the razor's edge between two worlds. As they navigate increasingly complex operations against ghoul threats, questions about identity, memory, and what truly separates monster from man begin to surface. In a city where every ally could be an enemy and every enemy might hold the key to understanding, the Quinx Squad must confront not only external dangers but the unsettling truths that lie within themselves.
