It tells the story of the eponymous protagonist, Ichiro Inuyashiki, an elderly salaryman who is shunned by his family and co-workers. One day, while walking out with his pet dog, he is caught in the blast of an explosion caused by an unknown entity, and finds himself reformed as a cyborg. He then decided to use his power to do some good and save people, but as it turns out, he wasn’t the only one affected by the explosion- Shishigami, an emotionally disturbed teen, is using his powers for destruction and violence. Things come to a head, and Inuyashiki soon finds himself as an unlikely hero in a desperate fight to save Japan- and soon enough, the world.
It’s an average manga, that is the best way to describe it. Where is stands out (in my opinion) is the art, it is so realistic. But other than that… It’s an average story with quite a few plot holes, I haven’t felt close to any of the characters and if you read a story similar to this one, you can pretty much guess the ending and there is a high chance your guess will be correct. On the other hand, it doesn’t have anything that’s particularly bad. The only “thing” I disliked about this manga is that every character cries all the time and to top this of even more, some cries in the most disgusting way. As a conclusion, I would say this is worth a read, but don’t expect much from it.
