📖 SYNOPSIS

Set ten years after the Bubble War, "Speed Grapher" depicts a stark contrast between the wealthy and the impoverished in Japan, particularly in Tokyo. Saiga, a former war photographer now working for Hibara Ginza, infiltrates the secretive Roppongi Club, a base located in the city's red light district, to gather information. During his infiltration, he is captured and brought before Kagura, a girl involved in a ritual. This encounter awakens a unique ability within Saiga: the power to cause explosions through his photographs. Driven by a desire to understand the Roppongi Club and Kagura's role, Saiga embarks on a solitary struggle. The series explores themes of societal disparity, the pursuit of pleasure, and the consequences of unchecked capitalism.
