Product Description: Your body is their business! Five young students at a Buddhist university, three guys and two girls, find little call for their job skills in today's Tokyo... among the living, that is! But all that stuff in college they were told would never pay off - you know, channeling, dowsing, ESP - gives them a direct line to the dead... the dead who are still trapped in their corpses and can't move on to the next reincarnation. The five form the Kurosagi ("Black Heron" - their ominous bird logo) Corpse Delivery Service: whether suicide, murder, accident, or illness, they'll carry your body wherever it needs to go to free your soul! The kids from Kurosagi can smell a customer a mile away - it's a good thing one of the girls majored in embalming!
Different offbeat enjoyable I will tell you that i enjoyed reading this very much.It's strangely different from most of the other graphic novels i have read in the past.The characters in the stories make it a great read.A must have.I cant wait too read the rest.
Complete newbie to manga...just adore this book! Honestly, I passed this in the bookstore on my way to picking up a knitting book. You could not know less about manga than I do. I found the story lines riveting and the art engaging. I've already ordered Volume 2 and 3. Definitely adult content but a very engrossing read!
Fascinatingly Macabre This book is definitely strange and gruesome but it is also brilliantly funny in a similarly dark way. The characters are interesting and vary nicely. The story is about a volunteer group of students who have banded together to help the dead find peace. The team includes a psychic, a dowser, an embalmer, and a channeler. If you have a strong stomach, an appreciation for the macabre, and a dark sense of humor I highly recommend this series.
Worthy I found the book to be engrossing and entertaining. The art is pretty good, and the characters likeable, especially Numata. It's a fun book, though there is some gruesome stuff in it.
