His secret's out - he can talk to the dead and listen to their last wishes. And finally, Yuji Yata constantly wears a hand puppet that he believes is possessed by an alien called Kereellis.Īs Karatsu decides that he doesn't really want to get mixed up with these weirdos, he turns to leave.and finds a corpse has crawled up behind him. Keiko Makino is a licensed embalmer in a country where close to 100% of bodies are cremated. Makoto Numata can use a pendulum to dowse, but can only find dead bodies.

You can also order the four previous volumes, and if you haven’t read it before, you should.The Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service is a Black Comedy horror manga written by Eiji Otsuka and illustrated by Housui Yamazaki.Īnswering an ad for volunteer work for extra credit, five students of a Buddhist university meet up at Aokigahara Forest, a real-life suicide spot. It’s $24.99 and due out March 11 next year (March 24 in bookstores). The Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service Omnibus Book 5 can be preordered now from your local comic shop with Diamond code NOV19 0297. The Omnibus volumes have sold better than the individual in the past, as we found out a few years ago. Since the previous Omnibus volumes have each included three books’ worth of manga, that would make this the equivalent of volumes 13-15, so I’m assuming the new stories would have been a 15th volume (which is confirmed by the Amazon listing). Dark Horse has announced that the coming Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service Omnibus Book 5 will include “previously unpublished stories” - that is, new material. I’m glad to see we don’t need to give up hope yet. Unfortunately, the most recent volume available in English was volume 14, which came out in the summer of 2015. The art is wonderfully detailed, the characters are wacky and interesting, and the ghost stories often have a revenge / “twist in the tail” aspect that keeps them interesting. Although it’s a horror manga, which I normally can’t tolerate, I really enjoy The Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service.
