Kiznaiver

In "Kiznaiver," Katsuhira Agata, a reserved and emotionally distant adolescent, resides in a perplexing state where the sensation of pain has gradually waned. Katsuhira's subdued disposition renders him a target for bullies who exploit his insensitivity to pain for financial gain. Even the most violent physical assaults barely solicit a flinch from him, mirroring his emotional detachment.

However, an unexpected turn of events shatters the monotony of Katsuhira's existence. Katsuhira, Chidori, and four other adolescents find themselves ensnared in a grand scheme, forcibly inducted into the Kizuna System as designated "Kiznaivers." This mechanism binds these individuals through shared pain: if one member suffers from an injury, the others experience an identical level of anguish.

Conscripted to become subjects and test subjects for a system conceived with the lofty goal of promoting global harmony, the Kiznaivers are thrust into a dangerous game. With their fates inextricably entwined, they must confront the vulnerable depths of their true selves, laying bare their innermost emotions, or risk catastrophic consequences that extend far beyond the confines of the Kizuna System.
