Having grown up in the meantime, the two attend a school where vampires and humans are taught together. Recently, rumors about a dangerous drug called "Spice" have been circulating there. This drug is supposed to improve the powers of the bloodsuckers so that everyone is crazy about it. As a member of the campus security force, Chiyo is in charge of the investigation. But suddenly, unknown persons kidnap Setsu's brother! Does the culprit have anything to do with the drug...? (Source: TOKYOPOP Germany, translated)
Kyoko Okamura, age 30. Keeeeeeeeeeeee! What happens when a girl who was raised by poisonous parents or a child who was abandoned become adults? Five selections of traumatic manga stories that convey Ryoko Yamagishi's genius. In "Tennin Karakusa," a young girl raised by an anachronistically strict father grows up with mixed emotions, overly wary of others. In "Harpy," a female-faced bird-monster from Greek mythology appears as a beautiful girl before the eyes of a boy living an ordinary high school life. In "Kitsunejo," a boy born to a concubine is taken in by the family of his deceased father and searches for his "real mother." "Kago no Naka no Tori" tells the story of a boy of "bird-man" blood, who has the special ability to hear the words of the dead, and a folklorist named Hitomi, whose love for him transcends the love of her own flesh and blood. Sumio heads to H-city during a heat wave to take care of the animal at his grandfather's house while he's away on an overseas trip. "Natsu no Guuwa" describes his mysterious experience with a girl he meets in a park. Yamagishi's world is so sad, painful, and poignant that you will surely be struck by her genius and the depth of her world!
