Explore mysteries in Nitro+CHiRAL’s DRAMAtical Murder, a cyberpunk BL visual novel available now on JAST USA and Steam.

DRAMAtical Murder is a cyberpunk mystery drama, taking place on an island off the coast of Japan. The island used to be a bustling community, until the Toue Coproration took over, walling off a huge portion of the island in an area known as the Platinum Jail. The remaining citizens live in the Old Residential District, a slum-like area where gangs vie for territory, and the yakuza call the shots. The story’s protagonist, Seragaki Aoba, used to act like a gangster himself but has since mellowed down. He’s been doing his best to maintain a quiet and simple life, living with his grandmother and working at a junk shop. Slowly but surely, though, his peace begins to erode as entire gangs begin disappearing off the streets, people are being forced into virtual reality fights, and his headaches strengthen as he begins to lose control of himself.

Story

"I will destroy you."

Midorijima. Situated to the south of Japan, this beautiful island was once a place where people lived in harmony with nature. Then the Toue Corporation took over, driving off most of the island's residents and forcing those who would not leave to live in the shadow of Platinum Jail, a walled-off megaresort where the wealthy wallow in luxury.

Aoba is a young man living with his grandmother in the Old Residential District, the last refuge of Midorijima's people. While his peers join gangs and fight for dominance of the streets or immerse themselves in the virtual reality game Rhyme, Aoba works part-time at a junk shop and hopes only that his peaceful life will last.

But strange things are happening on Midorijima, and Aoba will soon have to fight... or lose everything that he holds dear.
