What it’s about. Abandoned by his mother and having had to fend for himself, Ryuu is one of many Japanese youths that have turned to a life of petty crime in order to survive in Japanese society.

However, help emerges from an unexpected source to give him the strength to fight for his freedom: a victim of one of his past crimes.
