THE STRANGERS : WHERE DEATH IS MERCY SURVIVAL IS CURSE
Anime Title: The Stranger: Where Death is Mercy
Synopsis:
Once a weak and fragile schoolboy, Surya was left to die by monstrous creatures known as Wormen—ravenous, twisted hybrids that devour humans to evolve. Broken, alone, and on the verge of death, he was saved by a mysterious wild boy named Aditya, a lone warrior hardened by the jungle and loss. Together, they forged an unbreakable bond in the darkest corners of an ancient forest.
Driven by vengeance and survival, they formed a brotherhood known as Strangers—33 nameless warriors trained in the deadliest, most brutal ways imaginable. Each Stranger was stripped of identity, weakness, and mercy. Their only goal: annihilate the Wormen threat spreading like a plague across the world.
But the path to justice is drenched in blood, betrayal, and impossible choices.
Every punch breaks more than bones.
Every step forward echoes with the screams of the past.
This is not just a war.
This is a journey through the shattered mind, where death is a mercy... and survival is the curse.
Warning:
