Whatever happened to 8-Man? Why did he suddenly disappear, never to be seen again? This was the question on Sachiko's mind, as she could not forget about that fateful day when she learned the truth. Times have changed. Crime has a new face and a new mode. Newer technology has become part of the game, but the number one incentive is still power. Power that organised crime is trying to acquire. So what do you do when the criminals turn into near-invincible cyborgs? The answer: bring back an old cyborg crime fighter, one capable of combating this new threat. 8-Man returns to the scene, but he has changed. His mind is different, as he has a new host with a different set of priorities. 8-Man's new host is private detective Hazama Itsuru, a hard-nosed, sometimes violent man who likes to do things his way. So what does that mean when he is 8-Man? To put it short, he is quick and usually brutal. And since he still remembers his original life, he also remembers his grudges and his old enemies. A volatile mind in such a powerful body has everyone worried. Source: Absoluteanime.com
