Ningyou Shibai

Set in the far-future in 28XX, this series of interconnected stories follows the relationship between humans and androids. Two twin brothers, also androids, are "puppet masters." Arashi has the ability to animate androids or "dolls" for a specific purpose while Shizuka can shut them down after they have fulfilled their roles.

Notes: Volume 1 includes the one-shot "Yukigatari Harumachi".
