The young man was created in a lab, given a gene called ES - Eternal Sabbath. As a result, he will live to be two hundred years old. He has the power to enter your mind and make you think you've known him your whole life - or forget him, however he wills. He is known as Shuro, though he has taken other names as he needs. Today, he is Ryousuke Akiba.A series of events brings Shuro to the attention of a brain researcher named Dr. Mine Kujou. She is resistant to his powers, which arouses his interest. However, at the same time, she encounters another resistant - Sakaki, a researcher from the laboratory that created Shuro... the last survivor, as it so happens.For the lab that created Shuro also created a clone, Izaku. The intention was to dissect Izaku in order to study what exactly makes an ES tick. But when Izaku discovered this plan, he rebelled and killed everyone in the lab whom he could before escaping.Izaku's still out there. He has no empathy for any human being. If he is not stopped, the consequences could be nightmarish. And Shuro is the only one who can truly stop him.Now how will they convince Shuro of that?Eternal Sabbath is an eight-volume manga by Fuyumi Soryo (Mars (1996)).

Freaky Friday Sabotage: In the climax, Izaku attempts to steal the body of protagonist Shuro, and in the process psycho-kinetically lights his body on fire in an attempt to kill Shuro. While it looks like it's just a side-effect of the mind swap, his comments afterwards imply it is this trope.

comment
Terminally-Ill Criminal: Izaku is an Enfant Terrible who can manipulate others to commit suicide or otherwise kill them for sick amusement, but for the most part, he only does it when the target is in his way or has "wronged" him somehow. Then he discovers that he's dying due to a genetic anomaly, and goes on a rampage by indiscriminately controlling other people to kill and/or vandalize buildings, resulting in city-wide destruction.

The Resenter: Mine's best friend had left the medical career to become a housewife, to the disappointment of her family, who felt that she have wasted too much time and money for her studies only to leave the field behind. When her marriage eventually falls apart, she began to resent Mine for her success as a doctor.

Inconsistent Spelling: The official English release translates Izaku as "Isaac", likely to make the reference (see Meaningful Name) more obvious.

Good Girls Avoid Abortion: Averted with Yuri's mother. When she finds out she's pregnant again as she's starting to rebuild a relationship with her daughter, she opts to terminate the pregnancy out of fear that she won't love Yuri as much as the child. Izaku kills her before she does, her death being played for tragedy and killing her is what seals Izaku's fate.

comment
Accomplice by Inaction: Yuri's mother was herself horrifically abused by her violent father as a child. However she eventually admits that, while she hated and feared her father, she hated her mother just as much, if not more, for being too cowardly to try and protect her beyond meekly asking him to stop. Whenever her father beat her, her mother would buy her candy to try and apologise to her, but she could never even taste it.

I Have Many Names: Shuro considers "Shuro" his real name, but takes other aliases when necessary. He's known as Ryousuke Akiba for most of the series because he's used his powers to convince the Akibas that he's their son (so they'll take him in).
