In Tokyo, an impenetrable field known as "Hell's Gate" appeared ten years ago. At the same time, psychics who wield paranormal powers at the cost of their conscience also emerged.

Reviews

DtB, delivers well on its own premise. The visuals of the show are good and the characters make it worth the watch.

A blast from the past - Bones makes good work of the animation to deliver a super-power filled noir tale.

A good show worth checking out that just wasn't for me.
