    Synopsis:

    Set against the neon-drenched backdrop of Tokyo's Wangan Route, the series follows a young man who becomes obsessed with a legendary sports car known as the Devil Z. He disregards warnings linked to the vehicle’s tragic past involving a local street racer and his brother. Driven by an inexplicable allure, the protagonist finds himself drawn into the tight-knit community of Wangan racers, forging alliances with established figures like a Porsche 911 Turbo driver and a skilled Nissan Skyline GT-R pilot. His pursuit of the car's history leads him to a reclusive engine designer, igniting a chain of events that puts the entire racing scene on edge. The narrative explores themes of legacy, obsession, and the intoxicating power of speed as the racers navigate a perilous competition with unpredictable consequences. The atmosphere blends high-stakes racing with a sense of melancholic mystery.
