During one attack, a young inventor named Ikoma is bitten but manages to halt the virus from reaching his brain, becoming a Kabaneri—a powerful human-Kabane hybrid. Aboard the locomotive known as the *Iron Fortress*, he must use his new strength to protect the last remnants of humanity, who both need and fear him.

As the world is in the middle of an industrial revolution, a monster appears that cannot be defeated unless its heart, which is protected by a layer of iron, is pierced. By infecting humans with its bite, the monster can create aggressive and undead creatures known as Kabane. On the island Hinomoto, located in the far east, people have built stations to shelter themselves from these creatures. People access the station, as well as transport wares between them, with the help of a locomotive running on steam, called Hayajiro.
