In Tokyo’s downtown district of Ikebukuro, amidst many unusual rumors and warnings of nameless gangs and harmful occupants, one city legend stands out above the remaining—the existence of a headless “Black Rider” who is claimed to be seen driving a jet-black bike by way of town streets.
Mikado Ryuugamine has at all times longed for the joy of town life, and an invite from a childhood buddy convinces him to maneuver to Tokyo. Witnessing the Black Rider on his first day within the metropolis, his needs already appear to have been granted. However as supernatural occasions start to happen, peculiar residents like himself, together with Ikebukuro’s most colourful inhabitants, are combined up within the commotion breaking out of their metropolis.
