Mangaupdates: Volume 1 : The Laughing Vampire. While a young boy, just resurrected as a vampire, commits acts of awful ferocity, the city around him shows all its perversion. The adults abuse their power, the boys degenerate and use all the available means to achieve their goal to give vent to their low instincts. Whoever can't understand and make opposition is doomed to change or becoming crazy. So which is the real horror? The vampire who kills in order to feed himself or the crawling disease hidden in society, which slowy corrupts without being noticed? Volume 2 : Paradise. Following the events narrated in the first volume, Luna and Konosuke are now living together with the old woman vampire as fellows, as lovers, in a diabolic innocence, killing for quieting their thirst for blood, joining death and love under the dream of eternal youth. Meanwhile, a young boy named Makoto is looking for his lost sister Miko, who disappeared years ago in mysterious circumstances. But what really happened to that girl who liked eating grubs and dreamed of becoming one of them? And is there really a terrible secret that someone is hiding? The paths of all the characters will dramatically collide, bringing unexpected consequences after the things are gradually revealed.

Comics Underground Japan presents the wild, subversive world of Japan’s most accomplished underground comics artists. Some of the dozen artists included in this anthology will be familiar to followers of manga; others make their American debut in these pages. The richly imaginative stories in this volume show a great range of graphic style, from painstakingly detailed craftsmanship to exuberant, maniacal renderings. At the heart of each work in this anthology is a unique personal vision and a fierce artistic compulsion–these manga artists are the misfits of the art form, and they are its visionaries. Included stories are: "Hell's Angel" by Yoshikazu Ebisu "It's All Right if You Don't Understand" by Yoshikazu Ebisu "Steel Pipe Melancholia" by Masakazu Toma "Future Sperm Brazil" by Takashi Nemoto "A Love Like Lemons" by Carol Shimoda "Selfish Carol's Summer Vacation" by Carol Shimoda "Mercy Flesh (Jiniku)" by Kazuichi Hanawa "Don Quixote #1 & #2" by Yasuji Tanioka "Planet of the Jap" by Suehiro Maruo "Mary’s Asshole" by Hanako Yamada "Volvox" by Pan Migawa "Bigger and Better" by Muddy Wehara "Laughing Ball" by Hideshi Hino "Cat Noodle Soup" by Hajime Yamano & Nekojiro

Note: Even though Maruo Suehiro produces ero-guro works, this is not. However, as with much of his works, this is really weird. Gichi Gichi kid is a full manga about a boy with magical powers. The same adventures of children with the unique Maruo´s vision and elegant drawings; this kid is always making good for the people; nothing to do with the author's usual works.

It's about a boy with mysterious powers who transfers from school to school, fighting various monsters.

A man who robbed 100 million yen took a late-night taxi on the way to Yoshiwara, and the ghost story told by the taxi driver became a reality. Ryoko, who sat in an empty seat in the classroom where Suzue Miuchi was transferred to, gradually came to know the reason for her empty seat... the fear of the school's earthbound spirits and psychic phenomena. During the Tang Dynasty of Wenzong, a diligent, honest and brave man living in Chang'an decides to test his courage in an abandoned ruin where strange things happen every night. What I saw there was a small figure of myself who was angry and angry ... Daijiro Morohoshi's fantasy story. Hideshi Hino's "Hatsukanezumi" depicts the terror of monsters that gradually become gigantic and ferocious, and Kazuichi Hanawa's "Grudge" draws so-called "Edo ghost stories." Eight fears with different flavors. A book where you can enjoy the virtuosity that never gets old. The e-book does not include Go Nagai's "Fog Door". \*Author's signature is included only in e-books

In Japanese mythology an inugami is a type of shikigami, similar to a familiar spirit, resembling, and usually originating from, a dog, and most commonly carrying out vengeance or acting as guardians on behalf of the inugami-mochi, or "inugami owner". Inugami are extremely powerful and capable of existing independently, as well as turning on their "owners" and even possessing humans.

Collection of short stories by Maruo. It's almost impossible to summarize them, most of them aren't really plot driven but they deal with abnormal states of the mind and are permeated by a general surrealism. As in many of this works, he shows references to the art and culture of 1920s and 1930s Japan and Germany which had inspired his own artistic style.
