Dead Mount Death Play opens with a legendary battle that ends in an unexpected rebirth: the Corpse God, a powerful necromancer, awakens in the body of Polka Shinoyama, a young boy living in modern-day Tokyo. Cut off from the world he knew, he is forced to navigate a city where hackers, criminals, spirit users, and other supernatural forces hide behind ordinary streets. The farther he moves into this unfamiliar life, the more dangerous the questions become: who is hunting him, why are they after him, and how can he survive long enough to find out?
Blending dark fantasy with urban supernatural crime, Dead Mount Death Play follows the Corpse God as he tries to survive inside Polka Shinoyama’s life while staying one step ahead of enemies and opportunists alike. Hidden agendas, shifting alliances, and sudden betrayals shape every encounter, turning the story into a tense struggle for identity and survival. At its core, the series is about a collision between ancient power and a modern world ruled by secrets, where even reincarnation is only the beginning of the problem.
