High school student Kazuki Muto thinks he's saving a girl from a monster, but it turns out that he's the one who needs saving! Kazuki is killed while fighting a homunculus, a malevolent creature that feeds on humans. The girl, Tokiko Tsumura, revives him by replacing his heart with an alchemical device called a kakugane. With this device Kazuki can create his own Buso Renkin, an alchemical weapon in the form of a huge lance, capable of destroying homunculi. With his new weapon in hand, Kazuki decides to join forces with Tokiko to eliminate the homunculi and destroy their master, the strange and eccentric Papillon Masked Creator! (Verleiher-Text)

Englisch Maybe it’s enough to shout into the darkness: "It looks like a parody, but unfortunately the creators were actually being serious", "Drama from beginning to end", "I don't think I'll ever fall asleep from that soundtrack". Okay, not one of those shouts would be true (well, except for the first one, that feeling stuck with me for about a quarter of the series). I wanted to get it over with as soon as possible because it was boring. Maybe it was boring because I've seen all sorts of shōnen anime like this before. It's actually a very postmodern work – the use of persiflage is over the top. What I do appreciate is the kiss on the chimney :-) But that's the end of my appreciation and I can't think of anything else, probably because I remembered the WTF character with the Papillon mask. Why were there always shots of his crotch? It's not a bad anime, it's got plenty of flaws, but it's suitable for a beginner; if you’re a seasoned otaku, it will be quite the mystery as to where you’ve seen this before... :-) A better 2 stars.
