About Gachiakuta

Gachiakuta is a dark shōnen manga series written and illustrated by Kei Urana, with graffiti designs by Hideyoshi Andou. The manga began serialization in Kodansha’s Weekly Shōnen Magazine in February 2022 and has since gained a significant following for its unique blend of action, fantasy, and social commentary.

The story follows Rudo, a young man living in the slums of a wealthy town, where the poor are treated as disposable and the rich live in luxury. Rudo’s life takes a drastic turn when he is falsely accused of murder and cast into the Abyss, a massive hole where trash and unwanted people are discarded. Instead of dying, Rudo finds himself in a strange, foul-smelling place surrounded by monsters made out of trash. He must join a group known as the Cleaners, who battle these creatures, to survive and seek vengeance against those who wronged him.
