The World Is Mine

Hideki Arai’s The World is Mine is an uncompromising psychological thriller and disaster narrative that examines the breaking point of modern society. The story follows Mon and Toshi, two nihilistic young men who embark on a random, brutal killing spree across Japan, leaving a trail of senseless violence in their wake. Simultaneously, a massive, unidentified beast dubbed "Higumadon" emerges from the wilderness, tearing through the country with primal fury.

As these dual threads of human and natural devastation escalate and capture the nation's attention, they expose the fragility of law and order. Arai's visceral artwork and cynical storytelling serve as a harsh critique of media sensationalism, government incompetence, and the darkest aspects of human nature.
