I Bargained with a Devil follows Kaguya Nagasaki, a disillusioned 22-year-old living in a cramped Osaka apartment. Bitter at the world and trapped in a hopeless routine, his life takes a terrifying turn when he is contacted by a chained, ancient being imprisoned in a dark abyss for 6,660 years. The creature offers him a pact: bind his soul and gain forbidden power—or sacrifice three of his own blood relatives within three days. With no real way out, Kaguya accepts the disciple pact, reciting the words that tear into his flesh and spirit. Tentacles sprout from his back, a shadowy mist cloaks his face, and his humanity begins to erode.
