Fire Force 1

The fiery action manga that inspired the brand-new anime, from the creator of Soul Eater!

FIRE WALK WITH ME
The city of Tokyo is plagued by a deadly phenomenon: spontaneous human combustion! Luckily, a special team is there to quench the inferno: The Fire Force! The fire soldiers at Special Fire Cathedral 8 are about to get a unique addition. Enter Shinra, a boy who possesses the power to run at the speed of a rocket, leaving behind the famous "devil's footprints" (and destroying his shoes in the process). Can Shinra and his colleagues discover the source of this strange epidemic before the city burns to ashes?

Review

“How exactly does one follow a super-successful manga like Soul Eater? With Fire Force… [which turns] what was already a pretty dangerous, exciting occupation into something that involves the supernatural, super-powers, and cool weapons and vehicles.” -School Library Journal
