Mousou Dairinin
Synopsis: The infamous Shounen (Lil 'Slugger) stick is terrorizing the residents of the city of Musashino. Flying on their skates and beating people with a golden baseball club, the aggressor seems impossible to catch - much less understand. His first victim, the well -known and shy designer of characters Tsukiko Sagi, is suspected of orchestrating the attacks. Accredited only by her anthropomorphic plush pet, Maromi, Tsukiko is just one of the many victims of Shounen Bat.
While Shounen Bat continues his relentless attack on the city, Detectives Keiichi Ikari and Mitsuhiro Maniwa begin to investigate the attacker's identity. However, more and more people are victims of the notorious Golden Bat, and news of the aggressor begins to circulate around the city. Paranoia begins to settle when chilling rumors spread between adults and children.
Will the two detectives be able to unravel the truth behind Shounen Bat, or will paranoia come to them first?
