Karas

In **Karas**, the human world and the realm of youkai have begun to overlap, sharing the same city streets—humans unaware, demons moving unseen. Maintaining the fragile equilibrium is **Yurine** and her enforcer, a crow-themed guardian known as a **Karas**, whose duty is to keep youkai from disrupting everyday life. As people dismiss demons as superstition, a former Karas grows contemptuous of humanity’s complacency and abandons the code he once protected. Taking the human name **Eko**, he builds an army of **Mikura**, mechanized demons, and prepares to turn them against mankind.

A young man named **Otoha** inherits the Karas power and is brought to Yurine’s side, with Yurine insisting his soul called out to her while he lived as a human. Now living among the youkai, Otoha must prove himself worthy of the mantle and stop Eko from shattering the balance. On the human side, superstitious detective **Sagisaka** and his level-headed new partner **Kure** investigate a string of killings tied to the Mikura, along with the movements of a rogue Mikura called **Nue**, as unfolding events point toward a grim revelation for the city.
