Synopsis

In the first episode, “Kite”, the teenage assassin Sawa, discovered the man behind her parent's death. Years later, a rumor about a new assassin began to circulate around the city. She is called the Angel of Death. She eliminates her targets with grace and precision, and then vanishes without a trace into the darkness.
