One day he meets Mushiyanokouji Iwai, the "Hair Queen" who cannot cut her hair because of an inherited curse. Kiri finds out that his scissor, "Dansai Bunri no Crime Edge" is the only thing that can cut them. But little did he know that their meeting sparked the start of an old murder game to kill the "Hair Queen" using the cursed killing tools, the "Killing Goods." Can Kiri protect Iwai from the Killing Goods Owners? Let the game begin!

Where it came from
The Severing Crime Edge was released as a television anime series in 2013, produced by Studio Gokumi and based on the manga by Tatsuhiko Hikagi. The narrative follows Kiri Haimura, a boy with an obsession for cutting others' hair, who encounters Iwai Mushanokoji, a girl whose hair is cursed and cannot be cut. The series was developed as a supernatural thriller that blends gothic aesthetics with psychological themes, aiming to explore the connection between its two leads through the lens of their unique, macabre circumstances.
The production design focuses on the duality of the titular scissors—a 'killing tool'—and the protagonist's desire to use them for their intended purpose. The show's visual style reflects the dark, stylized tone of the original manga, emphasizing the contrast between the mundane school setting and the supernatural reality the characters inhabit. Upon its release, the series was noted for its unique premise and darker thematic elements, serving as a distinct entry in the catalog of 2013 anime titles distributed through Media Factory.
