Alice in Borderland: The Value of Life
People… There’s a special group that measures power in terms of money or influence, whether political or social. In the upper echelons of the workforce, many ask themselves: Who has the best connections? Who pulls the most strings?
All adults in Japan moved that way, but Yuta Hark, at 25 years old, witnessed true power. And no, it’s not in money, influence, or social connections. True power lies in life and death… and that which rises above everything: time. Every time someone falls, it becomes clear that nothing matters if you lack the ability to defend your life.
Everything can end in a single second. All it takes is someone drawing a knife to snatch your existence. Just one second… But that second defines your true worth on the thin line between life and death.
Born into this world to be analyzed, Yuta Hark never showed interest in trivial matters that didn’t enhance his knowledge or skills. And when something sparked his curiosity, he wouldn’t rest until he had unraveled it completely.
Driven by a unique vision of the world, Yuta ends up trapped in a strange version of Tokyo he never knew existed.
A place where he must compete with people of all kinds…
To survive.
“If even the gods themselves do not admit their mistakes, I will take it upon myself to correct them and unveil all their secrets.”
