TEXHNOLYZE
In the dark underground city of Lux, people live in fear and despair under the rule of various criminal factions. Almost secluded from the surface, the gangs' only interaction with the outer world is their mining operation of "raffia," which is the raison d'être of the city. Available only in Lux, this rare substance is the basis of "texhnolyze" transplants that permit humans to replace parts of their body with cybernetic prostheses.

In a city where cybernetic limbs replace hope, a broken boxer and a prophetic florist confront a descent into engineered apocalypse.
Beneath the ruined surface of a world long forgotten{—}the city of Lux claws at existence in perpetual twilight. The city is a rust‑caked crucible of gangs, each vying for control of raffia, a rare mineral that fuels the black‑market tech known as texhnolyze. This cybernetic graft replaces flesh without rejection, turning the broken into weaponized extensions of the city’s own will. The secretive Class oversees the research, while the shadowy Organo, led by the iron‑legged Keigo Oonishi, enforces its edicts with a cold, almost prophetic authority. When Kazuho Yoshii, a lone drifter with a taste for chaos, begins a string of brazen murders, the fragile equilibrium shatters. Former boxer Ichise, mutilated by Organo and reborn with a texhnolyzed arm, is thrust into the conflict by the enigmatic surgeon Eriko "Doc" Kamata. Across the neon‑smeared streets, Ran, a florist with the unsettling gift of precognition, watches the city’s descent into madness. As factions collide and the very walls of Lux begin to whisper, Ichise and Ran become unwilling fulcrums in a cataclysm that threatens to erase the last flicker of humanity from the underground world.
