Synopsis

The world is divided into two factions: humans and monsters called katawara. Despite being a katawara, Tama loves humans and vows to protect them from evil, even if it means fighting against her own kind. Her brother Jinka, however, hates humans, despite being largely one of them. The siblings are accompanied by a cowardly swordsman named Shinsuke, who wishes to learn how to become strong.

Mizukami launched the manga in Mag Garden's Monthly Comic Blade magazine in 2007 and moved it to an online version on the magazine's website after the magazine ceased publication in 2014.
