BABYLON is a TV anime series produced by REVOROOT, adapted from the novel by Mado Nozaki. When prosecutor Zen Seizaki uncovers a sinister conspiracy hidden within a seemingly routine pharmaceutical investigation, his encounter with the enigmatic Ai Magase pulls him into a psychological abyss with no way back. Directed by Kiyotaka Suzuki with series composition by Naohiro Fukushima, this drama-mystery-thriller masterfully translates the source material's escalating dread and moral collapse onto the screen. For fans of dark, cerebral storytelling that challenges the very definition of good and evil, BABYLON is an unmissable watch.

Set in a near-future Tokyo, this gripping suspense series builds a world where political power and social tension simmer beneath the surface of everyday life. A newly established autonomous zone in western Tokyo operates under its own distinct legal and administrative framework, existing almost as a city within a city. At the heart of the story is Zen Seizaki, a dedicated prosecutor working for the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors' Office, known for his unwavering commitment to justice. What begins as a routine investigation into the alleged misconduct of a pharmaceutical company soon leads Seizaki down an unexpected path—one that connects to a shadowy conspiracy surrounding an upcoming election in this self-governing district. As he digs deeper, the line between law and corruption grows increasingly blurred, drawing him into a dangerous game far beyond the scope of any ordinary case.
