Description
"Virus Buster Serge" is a 12-episode anime series set in a futuristic world where humanity faces a deadly threat from mysterious creatures known as "Lucifer Awakenings." These beings are the result of a catastrophic event caused by the "Lucifer Virus," a bio-engineered pathogen that transforms humans into monstrous entities. The story centers on Serge, a young man who becomes a "Virus Buster," a specialized agent tasked with combating the Lucifer Awakenings and protecting humanity.

Serge and Reiko must navigate a web of betrayal, sacrifice, and difficult choices to prevent the virus from spreading further.
