Koutetsujou no Kabaneri
Synopsis: The world is in the middle of the industrial revolution when horrible creatures emerge from a mysterious virus, tearing the flesh of humans to quench their endless appetite. The only way to kill these beings, known as "Kabane", is to destroy their hearts coated with steel. However, if bitten by one of these monsters, the victim is sentenced to a destination worse than death, for the fallen rise once again to join the ranks of their dead -kings.

Little does he know, however, that his chance will arrive much earlier than he expected ...
