A boy on rollerblades is said to be responsible for a series of mysterious beatings in Tokyo. It's always the same with the victims, they can't recall the boy's face and only two distinct details are left in their memories golden rollerblades and the weapon, a golden baseball bat bent into that of a dog's leg.
The other detail about the attacks is that all the victim's suffer from depression, stress, and emotional trauma. The victims develop an inner paranoia of everything around them, due to their pasts or secrets. After Lil' Slugger (Or Holy Warrior) hits them with his bat they seem to lose that paranoia, also each victim seems to have a tie with the last victim. Thus the title "Paranoia Agent"
