Plot

A phenomenon called Medusa Syndrome sweeps across Japan, causing seemingly ordinary young women to develop murderous split personalities, while having no memory of what their murderous personality does. Chika Amagi is nearly raped when her Medusa Syndrome kicks in and she kills the attackers. She is disowned by her parents as she is arrested and sentenced to Haguro Island Prison along with other sufferers of Medusa Syndrome. Once there, she struggles to survive as the corrupt staff encourages the girls to trigger their murderous personalities so they can fight and kill each other.
