A one volume manga was created based on the series, and was licensed and distributed by TOKYOPOP. The show was picked up for a UK DVD release by Manga Entertainment starting in March 2006. It was packaged in double DVD sets to make up for the long delayed release of the series.

A cyborg detective navigates a neon-soaked urban landscape with a voice that carries the weight of his mechanical existence. This futuristic crime saga trades typical anime tropes for a grounded, atmospheric investigation into a sprawling cityscape.
