Abyss

A manga about a humans teleported to a strange world filled with monsters. They fight back by using trigger switches that unlock psychic abilities such as telekinesis and pyromancy.

Pretty good horror manga and debut work. The story is a little rote with the main character having amnesia. It later ties into a time travel which is also pretty standard for stories in science fiction horror genre. The standout here is Ryuhaku Nagata‘s monster designs. They’re very monstrous and decently horrifying. Nagata will focus on these monsters to make his next series Satsujin Ryoudan – MADMEN –. It’s just a shame that his art sometimes doesn’t push the horror elements further.
