The anime is based on Q Hayashidaās manga that began serialization in ShogakukanāsĀ Monthly Ikki Magazine. VIZ MediaĀ published the manga in English, and they describe the story as:
In a city so dismal itās known only as āthe Hole,ā a clan of Sorcerers have been plucking people off the streets to use as guinea pigs for atrocious āexperimentsā in the black arts. In a dark alley, Nikaido found Caiman, a man with a reptile head and a bad case of amnesia. To undo the spell, theyāre hunting and killing the Sorcerers in the Hole, hoping that eventually theyāll kill the right one. But when En, the head Sorcerer, gets word of a lizard-man slaughtering his people, he sends a crew of ācleanersā into the Hole, igniting a war between two worlds.
