Sarai is a sci-fi and action manga series by Masahiko Nakahira. The story is set in a future where the world is dominated by a colossal orbital elevator known as the "Tower of Babel." It follows the journey of a young protagonist caught in the conflict between the oppressed surface dwellers and the elite who control the tower, blending high-stakes combat with a dark, dystopian atmosphere.
The series is renowned for its gritty, high-energy art style and its exploration of power dynamics within a fractured society. It is highly regarded for being a quintessential work of the cyberpunk subgenre, praised for its intricate mechanical designs and the breathless pacing that characterized Nakahira’s earlier works.
It stands out as a unique entry in the author's bibliography, offering a distinct departure from fighting-game adaptations. The manga is celebrated for its world-building and intensity, making it a compelling read for fans of seinen narratives and high-stakes adventure.
