Urotsukidoji IV: Inferno Road

Synopsis

Continues the story of Urotsukidoji III: Return of the Overfiend

Twenty-five years ago, the world met its end. When the Overfiend—the supreme deity over all gods—arrived, the realms of humans, demons, and beasts collapsed into one chaotic mass. With the assurance that he would be born in a hundred years to remake his flawed world, the Overfiend returned to slumber within his mother's womb. But a severe miscalculation has occurred... Now the Overfiend has emerged prematurely, awaiting the arrival of his destined foe, the Lord of Chaos. His sole chance for survival rests with Amano Jyaku and his sister Megumi. However, fate has taken unforeseen turns even for the Overfiend, as a new breed of hybrid demon beasts has arisen. As Amano journeys to the kingdom of Azuma to investigate the Lord of Chaos's appearance, he becomes entangled in the world-conquering ambitions of Caesar, Azuma's tyrant. Against the backdrop of a demon beast slave uprising and the return of the villainous Munhihausen, only Amano and the demon beast Buju can prevent yet another fiery annihilation. With the earth's destiny and every living being hanging in the balance, all await what the arrival of the Lord of Chaos will bring...

In this installment

Directly following the conclusion of Urotsukidoji III, the survivors of the Azuma kingdom genocide travel aboard a futuristic tank with Osaka as their destination. There, they plan to face both the Overfiend and their own fates as well. Along the way, they stumble upon a civilization beyond imagination, where children cruelly rule over the adults. It is up to Amano Jyaku to save his friends from this sinister land and its evil ruler, Ellis. Shortly after their encounter, Sui Kaka Ju's sister Yoenhime summons Munhihausen, who transforms her into the menacing Yoenki. At last, she is strong enough to reap revenge on Amano for killing her brother. But Munhihausen has his own hidden agendas. The Urotsukidoji legend will finally reach its climax in Osaka, when Kiojo, the sweet and innocent Himi, and the Chojin meet face to face.
