📖 SYNOPSIS
"Angel Heart" follows a young Taiwanese assassin known as "Glass Heart," who tragically ends her life by jumping from a building. However, she survives due to a miraculous heart transplant. During her recovery, she experiences peculiar dreams that compel her to travel to Japan. Her search leads her to Kaori Makimura, the former partner of City Hunter's Ryo Saeba, and the donor of her new heart. The anime exists in a parallel universe, sharing characters with "City Hunter" but not its storyline. The narrative explores themes of second chances, the impact of a life-saving transplant, and the connection between the assassin and the heart's original owner.
