Yami Kariudo

Takeshi Hazama appears to be a high school student with aspirations of becoming a manga artist, but secretly operates as a Dark Hunter, taking on the role of an assassin for those seeking justice against the wicked. In this capacity, he uses a stainless steel ruler and a pen as his tools of the trade. He frequently encounters Kyousuke Garyuu, another Dark Hunter who functions as both a competitor and occasional partner. A one-shot titled *Hajime no Ippo!* is also associated with the series.
