Step into another alternate reality, Japan transformed by drugs and the supernatural, crafted by Ryo Yoshigami.
The Psycho-Pass writer leads readers on a journey with the D-Unit as they battle enemies with destructive powers. Like the ‘Dopemen’, readers find themselves addicted to the novel.
Dangers lurk at every turn in Dopeman Volume 1. Ryo Yoshigami eradicates the metropolitan Japan that we know, as it has now become a warzone for the authorities and a new enemy.
The legalization of narcotics unleashed a wave of supernatural powers among drug addicts. To battle the new enemies, the D-Unit is formed comprising of detectives, who alongside the reader, are plunged into a superhuman doping conflict.
The gripping story unfolds in a dark dystopia reminiscent of the hit anime Psycho-Pass, which Yoshigami also had a hand in creating as a screenwriter of the third season and author of the franchise’s short novels.

Readers will quickly find themselves captivated by the conflict they are immediately thrown into, but perhaps also be morally torn.
