AJIN: Demi-Human
Kei Nagai’s body should have died when a truck slams into his body, but instead, he finds himself resurrected with all of his wounds healed. Now revealed to be an Ajin, one of a mysterious new breed of immortal demi-human, he’s been marked with an international bounty, and in the eyes of the world, Kei is a specimen to be taken by any means possible. Now he’s on the run, and his only hope is to discover the terrifying secrets behind his new abilities before he’s forced to use them in battle! (Source: Sentai Filmworks)
