Set in 1970s Japan, amidst the height of student protests, the story follows Professor Ichinoseki, a world-renowned geneticist who, after a lifetime of research, feels he has failed to unlock the secrets of the universe. On the verge of suicide, the devil appears to him in the form of a young woman, offering him a contract: his soul in exchange for a second life. Written in the final months of Osamu Tezuka's life, Neo Faust is a personal reflection on the passage of time and the mysteries of creation, serving as a symbolic reinterpretation of the life of one of the greatest geniuses of manga.
