## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

You track rogue Zeiram through neon alleys in a freight-hopping future. One hijacked heat-vision pulse turns your brother’s face on the scanner.

The ship’s walls breathe with his old handwriting while bounty contracts keep fading.

Amino’s 94 anime frames Zeiram less as monster more as missing kin in motion.

**Mood tags**: neon-soaked, outsider, unhinged
