Synopsis of Fire Force

Shinra Kusakabe, who has yet to recover from the childhood trauma of losing his family in a fire, suffers both the blessing and the curse of being a third-generation pyrokinetic: a person endowed with the ability to freely control fire. Meanwhile, the Infernals (first-generation pyrokinetics that spontaneously turn into flaming demonic creatures) ravage the streets of Tokyo. After being recognized for his skills, Shinra joins Company 8 of the Special Fire Force, one of the many fire brigades developed to combat these Infernals.

Although working with the Fire Force seems to have fulfilled a calling, Shinra learns that becoming a hero isn't as easy as it seems. Infernals sightings worsen across the country, and his own fellow brigadistas struggle to unite against these threats. To make matters worse, Shinra's past haunts him again after confronting a mysterious cult. As he strives to uncover the truth, Shinra soon finds himself in the middle of a conspiracy that aims to engulf the world in flames.
