MUZAN-EIGA MESSIAH. MUTANT SEX TRIBE. in the aftermath of a global catastrophe the totalitarian city-state of Zentropolis rises from the ashes of Japan. Marukido Sada, a freelance assassin and last surviving exponent of a mysterious neugenics program known as Project Equinox, embarks on a hazardous mission that draws her deep into the heart of a hostile urban dystopia populated by fanatical religious cults, vicious crime tribes and subversive groups obsessed with the erotic possibilities of biological mutation. Her quest culminates with the revelation of a genocidal plot led by the charismatic doyenne of a sinister new phenomenon -- the ultraviolent muzan-eiga craze -- inspired by malevolent alien entities whose ultimate goal is the extermination of all life in the name of an obscene creed steeped in timeless evil. ZENTROPOLIS combines elements of science fiction, horror and the occult with vivid imagery derived from the stylistic extremities of Japanese manga comic books, anime and their historically-controversial muzan-e predecessors -- a spectacular rollercoaster ride in which the cosmic potentialities of Eastern and Western fantasy traditions collide with apocalyptic consequences.
