What is Fire Force about?
The Fire Force anime is based on the dark fantasy manga series of the same title (Japanese: En'en no Shōbōtai) by Atsushi Ohkubo (also the creator of Soul Eater). The series was serialized in Kodansha's Weekly Shōnen Magazine from September 2015 to February 2022, with its chapters collected in 34 tankōbon volumes. Kodansha USA licensed the manga for English-language release for North American audience.
Crunchyroll shared a description for Fire Force:
Tokyo is burning, and citizens are mysteriously suffering from spontaneous human combustion all throughout the city! Responsible for snuffing out this inferno is the Fire Force, and Shinra is ready to join their fight. Now, as part of Company 8, he’ll use his devil’s footprints to help keep the city from turning to ash! But his past and a burning secret behind the scenes could set everything ablaze.
