Buso Renkin (2006-2008) Manga Complete Series Vols. 1-10

(W/A/CA) Nobuhiro Watsuki

High school student Kazuki Muto had no clue what he was in for when he rescued damsel in distress Tokiko from a monster known as a “homunculus.” Disguised as humans – who actually eat humans – homunculi are malevolent creatures that affix themselves to people’s brains, and once fully grown, the only thing that can annihilate them is a weapon called buso renkin! Follow the adventures of Kazuki after he discovers that it was actually Tokiko who saved his life by implanting a kakugane – an alchemical device that transforms into a buso renkin – to replace his heart!
