✦An amnesiac hairdresser takes assassination jobs with a pair of scissors, letting failed contracts and missing memories share one compact action-comedy premise.
Synopsis
Seven is a hairdresser with missing memories and an additional career as an unreliable assassin. He accepts contracts while seeking clues about the life he cannot recall. The scissors serve both professions, which reduces equipment costs but not confusion. Each assignment can become a local action comedy, while the unanswered question of Seven's past keeps his strange employment from feeling entirely random.
Meet Seven, an amnesiac hairdresser who earns money through badly handled assassination contracts. His scissors double as weapons, while his plans rarely survive contact with a target. The immediate comedy comes from professional failure. His missing past supplies a continuing purpose beneath the jobs, disguises, and martial confrontations.
Seven cuts hair, takes assassination contracts, and is spectacularly bad at keeping either job tidy. That combination is already irresistible. The scissors are practical, the plans are questionable, and every assignment can collapse into a completely different kind of problem. His missing memories give all that chaos a direction, because beneath the bungling work is someone trying to understand how he became this person!
A failed assassin can support plenty of cheap slapstick, and the premise makes obvious use of the contrast between deadly work and ordinary hairdressing. The amnesia gives it a stronger spine. Seven is not only accepting contracts with scissors and poor planning. He is also looking for a past he cannot recall, allowing episodic trouble to sit beside one durable personal question.
