Ikigami

Overview

In a not too distant dystopian future, all Japanese students receive an inoculation containing a nano machine designed to kill the host around their 24th birthday. The Japanese government's reasoning for this is that the threat of sudden and unexpected death will increase productivity in the citizens. Anyone who attempts to voice their opinions on this are accused of thought crime and arrested. Ikigami follows the story of Kengo Fujimoto, a man assigned to deliver Ikigami to victims 24 hours before they are due to die.
