DESCRIPTION:
Excellent Manga for Those With a Strong Stomach Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service is quickly becoming one of my favorite manga. The art is beautiful and detailed, even when the subject matter is completely grotesque, and has a really wonderful uniqueness to it. (If anything, the style reminds me a little bit of Naoki Urasawa, the guy behind Monster, though not quite so detailed.)One of my favorite things about the manga is its willingness to go from comedic to horrifying at the drop of a hat--a story featuring a possessed space monkey is immediately followed by one about WWII-era human rights atrocities. It makes it a little hard to classify, but in a good way; is it horror? Black. Continues to be one of the best manga out there This second collected work in the Kurosagi saga continues to explore the group and their various abilities. Again, the writing and story continues to be extremely well done. The art is amazing.As with the first collected volume, the editor's notes are a huge added bonus that helps bring a deeper understanding to what is happening throughout. It gives a look at Japan's culture and history for those who might be unfamiliar with it. Even though I studied Japanese language, history and culture in college the editor still manages to educate with tidbits of information that isn't commonly taught or known.Even though this is a 'horror' man. Amazon Customer said Great start for this series.. Quality wise this is a very good product with virtually no wear. Shipping time was standard and came well packaged. The book itself has a great cover both, design and material, being made with a thin cardboard paper helping it stick out.This manga is definitely refreshing, combining traditional/supernatural Japanese culture with modern and contemporary. Filled with dark humor and even darker "villians". This volume does its job at introducing the characters in an organic way and fleshes them out through the volume.The stories contained are very dark, though tend to have a lighter ending, so if your looking for a light hearted manga,
The oddball duo calling itself the White Heron Corpse Cleaning Service aren't just out to eat Kurosagi's wormy lunch, they're going to start revealing trade secret - namely, the hideous history behind the ghost which haunts Karatsu!. There's competition on all sides in the body baggage game, when Kurosagi finds its rather loose business model challenged by a corporate rival who guarantees the next world on time! But it's not only the clean-cut trying to dig into their market
