Ajin (Seasons 1–2)

Ajin: Demi-Human (亜人, 2016) is a dark action thriller anime series you can watch online on iFILM. Seventeen years before the story begins, immortal beings called Ajin surfaced on African battlefields. By now, governments have made hunting them a legal, state-sponsored operation — dissecting them alive counts as research.

High-schooler Kei Nagai never thought any of this applied to him. Then a truck ran him down and he came back. Within minutes, a perfectly ordinary student became a fugitive with a government bounty on his head. Voiced by Mamoru Miyano, Kei is forced to run while figuring out what he actually is — and whether the Ajin resistance led by the coldly strategic Sato is any better than the people chasing him.

Polygon Pictures animated the series in CGI, which gives the action a deliberately blunt, mechanical feel that suits the story's argument: that fear of the different licenses cruelty at institutional scale. Stream all episodes of Ajin online on iFILM.
