Rose Guns Days Sorrowful Cross Knife

1946, two years after the war ended in Japan. An orphan named Wayne has been hired by District 23’s Club Primavera—the base of operations for the brothel alliance vying for power with foreign militaries and the mafia. When a series of murders strike fear and rage in the people of District 23, the prime suspect is none other than Jack, the orphan boy Wayne sees as his brother. Torn between belief and doubt, Wayne struggles to find the answer to the mystery before him—who exactly is Jack? The culprit...or just another victim? Ryukishi07, the creator of Higurashi When They Cry, Umineko When They Cry, and the original Rose Guns Days; and Tsuyoshi Takaki bring the prequel of Rose Guns Days to life!

Wanting to believe in the man he called his brother, Wayne finds him at the old hideout they once used as a safehouse years and years ago. Apparently, the feeling is not mutual—Jack’s first reaction to the sight of Wayne was to begin a deadly battle in the depths of the sewers. Driven into a corner by Jack’s fierce attack, Wayne searches for the way to reach Jack’s heart so he can finally learn the truth behind the murders...
