Compilation of both Hamatora series. "Minimum" - a special inborn power found in a limited number of human beings, known as "minimum holders." In Yokohama, the detective team Hamatora, formed by two minimum holders named Nice and Murasaki, comes across information connected to a serial killer being pursued by their old friend Art. It turns out all the victims are minimum holders like them. Unwillingly at first, the two detectives become involved in the investigation.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This compilation film was rushed to theaters to capitalize on the second season's finale buzz, with new bridging scenes animated specifically for the 68-minute cut.
Hamatora premiered in 2014's 'superpowered battle anime' boom alongside Tokyo Ghoul and K, but its detective-procedural structure and Yokohama setting made it distinctively urban-Japanese rather than fantasy-escapist.
