Alternative title:
アラバスター (Japanese)
Genres: science fiction
Plot Summary: Former sports star James Block gets caught up in crime and imprisoned. During an escape attempt he experiments with a machine designed to turn people invisible, and is horribly disfigured as a result, his skin and outer tissues rendered permanently invisible leaving his insides bare. Determined to destroy everything beautiful in the world, he embarks on a long and twisted crime spree, dragging along Ami, the grandchild of the invisibility machine's inventor who, due to an accident, was born invisible. Block and Ami are pursued by FBI (Rock), a vain and wicked American special agent who has cheated and seduced his way to the highest ranks of law-enforcement but has no interest in seeing justice done.
