Dansai Bunri no Crime Edge

Kiri Haimura has a peculiar obsession: he loves to cut hair. It’s a harmless quirk, until the day he discovers Iwai Mushanokouji, a mysterious girl with impossibly long, beautiful hair that no ordinary scissors can touch. Iwai, it turns out, is the "Hair Queen," the latest in a lineage of cursed individuals whose hair can only be cut by a ceremonial "Killing Goods" — weapons wielded by designated killers. Kiri, to his shock, finds that his favorite pair of antique scissors is one such weapon. Suddenly entangled in a deadly game he never asked for, Kiri must now protect Iwai from other assassins, each bearing their own unique Killing Goods and dark intentions. As the two navigate a shadowy world of ancient curses and lethal rivals, they uncover the chilling truth behind the Hair Queen's lineage and the brutal battle royale that dictates her fate.
