Synopsis:
Years after the events of *Wall of Hell*, *Child of Destruction* delves deeper into the origins of Riki and Nachi. The narrative shifts between present-day gladiatorial combat within the oppressive town of Misaki and fragmented flashbacks revealing a traumatic childhood. Riki's past is marked by the loss of his mother and separation from his twin brother, events that continue to haunt him. Now a prisoner forced into brutal arena fights, Riki encounters Nachi, who has become a figure known as "Savior" due to newfound abilities. However, their reunion is fraught with tension and unresolved resentment. The series explores themes of familial trauma, power dynamics, and the consequences of religious extremism set against a backdrop of industrial decay and violent conflict. *Child of Destruction* presents a stark and unflinching portrayal of violence, emphasizing visceral action and psychological turmoil.
