Boy Kills World
A deaf‑mute orphan trained by a mystic shaman turns his trauma into lethal skill as he hunts down those who massacred his family, battling ruthless mercenaries and his own haunted imagination before vengeance consumes him.
“Let the ass-kicking commence.”
Synopsis
After his family is murdered, a deaf-mute boy named Boy flees to the jungle, where he is taken in and trained by a mysterious shaman to suppress his childish imagination and transform into an instrument of death.

Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
