This work cuts the taboo in Japanese society, and draws direct sufferance and way of life of men who are caught up in absurdity of organization and society, underneath the underworld community. The original work is a novel of a writer Hiroyuki Maruno with the same title, who continues to challenge the taboo of the times. In 2012, the ban on this e-book was removed from App Store, but the problem was novel which was banned of publishing prohibition, "too dangerous contents!", "too extreme to release!", "No possibility to publish". It has been refused to release continuously by so-called big plural publishing companies, magazines related to underworld community, big self-publishing companies. Maruno is also in charge of screenplay for this work.
