Kishin Douji Zenki Gaiden: Anki Kitan

Synopsis

Continues the story of Zenki

Long ago, the powerful sorcerer Enno Ozuno fought against the wicked demon deity Karuma. Realizing he could not defeat her alone, Enno called upon Zenki, a mighty guardian demon, for assistance. After Karuma was vanquished, Enno sealed Zenki inside a pillar within his temple. Twelve hundred years later, Enno's descendant Chiaki makes a living by giving tours around the town of Shikigami-cho and performing exorcisms. One day, two burglars break into the Ozuno temple, intending to break a seal and steal its valuables. Instead of treasure, they unleash a malevolent spirit that possesses them, transforming them into monstrous creatures. These possessed beings run amok through the temple, putting Chiaki in danger. To safeguard Shikigami-cho from these monsters and the evil forces that emerge, Chiaki must awaken her family's latent powers to summon Zenki and face this threat directly.
