Jiraishin centers on a plainclothes police officer named Kyoya Ida (Ky in the English version), who is known to solve cases by using questionable methods with the point of using violence to resolve them while interacting with a bleak, dark world, sometimes with prices to pay. In Jiraishin Diablo, Ida had left the force for an undetermined period of time while suffering from the effects of Keratoconus after coming across a police detective assigned to Ishikawa and a grown up Aya Koike, who Ida had met back in the 1990s, while solving a case of unknown deaths in the fictional Amakura Island in Japan's Ishikawa Prefecture.
