ギルティクラウン

The story revolves around Shu Ouma, a high school boy who inadvertently obtains an ability called "The Power of the Kings" that enables him to draw out items called "Voids" from other people.

In the process, Shu has to deal with the burden his ability puts on his shoulders and the horrific mystery of his past.
