I’m criminally late in sharing those two new volumes to the absolutely unique Kko To Yamioji Raku series. Better late than never, but, still, for what it’s worth, I’m sorry about that delay
So, coming after the first volume, Kko To Yamioji Raku, here is:
– Kko To Yamioji Raku (“Lady K & The Sick Man – Paradise”)
– Kko To Yamioji Bangaihen (“Lady K & The Sick Man – Extra Story”)
In case you missed the first volume when I shared it (fear not, I also share at the bottom of the present post a “repacked version” with all 3 volumes, the older volume 1 and the 2 newer ones), to sum this story up, I’ll copy-paste what I wrote before:
I am bursting with admiration for the male main character of this manga. What a man. What an admirable, virile, praiseworthy man.
He finds a dirt cheap apartment and is unsurprised there was a catch: a Sadako-lookalike shows up.
And so? HE TREATS HER LIKE A WOMAN! AND SHE RESPONDS IN KIND!
The two following volumes are direct sequels, two new characters are introduced (a strange kid, and a “cool once you know him” Buddhist monk), and we learn more about the female main character, what is important to her, how she becomes happier and enjoys “life” more than before
Graphically, man, this is unique. Never seen something like that before. Heavy dark contracts, thick volumes, and a respect for the horror trope with the Sadako fundamentals like sunken eyes and visible blood vessels. And, man, against all odds, it was crazy hot
That said, a honest warning, the volume 3 is destroyed by blur mosaics, what a sad waste T__T
Check it out! It’s absolutely worth it!
We owe those extraordinary releases to LunaticSeibah, V Rustl, Micicle and Summersrx, from LunaticSeibah, thank you so much
