Ajin: Demi-Human

language

description Ajin: Demi-Human Overview

Mysterious immortal humans known as "Ajin" first appeared 17 years ago in Africa. Upon their discovery, they were labeled as a threat to mankind, as they might use their powers for evil and were incapable of being destroyed. Since then, whenever an Ajin is found within society, they are to be arrested and taken into custody immediately. Studying hard to become a doctor, Kei Nagai is a high schooler who knows very little about Ajin, only having seen them appear in the news every now and then.

Students are taught that these creatures are not considered to be human, but Kei doesn't pay much attention in class.

help Ajin: Demi-Human FAQ

Why does the Ajin anime look different from the manga?

The anime adaptation is produced by Polygon Pictures using 3D CGI animation, giving it a distinct look from Tsuina Miura's 2D manga artwork. This cel-shaded visual style was a major point of discussion among fans upon its Netflix release in 2016.

What are the IBM in Ajin: Demi-Human?

IBM stands for Invisible Black Matter, which are the ghostly, shadow-like entities that immortal Ajin can manifest. The main protagonist, Kei Nagai, possesses an exceptionally strong and autonomous IBM.

Does the Ajin anime follow the manga exactly?

The anime adaptation diverges significantly from the manga during its second season. Characters like Tosaki experience different character arcs, and the storyline creates an original climax rather than faithfully adapting the source material.

Who is Sato in Ajin?

Sato is the main antagonist, a highly intelligent and ruthless Ajin veteran who uses his immortality to wage a terrorist campaign against the Japanese government. He serves as a dark foil to the reluctant protagonist, Kei Nagai.
