About this title

Synopsis

In this world, there are people known as "Minimum Holders" who are capable of specific "small miracles." A government funded elite academy trains these Minimum Holders in order for them to reach their maximum potential and serve national interests. Once, a student, of great potential named Nice, dropped out. He started a private investigator team with an assistant named Hajime and seemed content solving cases for his clients (which often involve Minimum Holders). A top student of the academy, Murasaki, has been tasked with bringing Nice back. Murasaki bristles at the claim that Nice has a higher potential than he does, but he ends up involved in Nice's detective activities... (Source: MangaHelpers)

    The impulsive half of the "Minimum Holder PI duo" along with his partner Murasaki. He is constantly broke for money, partly due to the fact that he doesn't care about the cost of a job request more than what it entails. He is a bit absent minded at times with little regard for whatever situation he is immediately in such as when he tries withdrawing cash during a bank robbery with armed thieves. Despite his seemingly carefree nature, he is a genius thinker and able to quickly assess information.

    The rather reserved other half of the "Minimum Holder PI duo" along with his partner, Nice. He is a rational thinker and unlike Nice, prioritizes the cost of a job request over content. He has a bit of an existentialist outlook on things. His Holder ability is activated when he removes his glasses. (Source: Wikipedia)
