Kemono Jihen

A manga about a group of half-demons who form an investigation team that specialize in dealing with paranormal cases. The newest member is a half-demon named Kabane who possesses incredible regeneration powers but was raised with no emotions.

I really liked this series. I didn’t know this was being done by Sho Aimoto who did Hokenshi no Shinigami, a moderately successful manga that ran in Shonen Jump.

While I like the protagonist, his shtick of starting with no emotions and gradually learning them as he interacts with his peers and enemies is nothing original. But when it’s done well with interesting side characters and solid art, I can’t complain about it. It actually makes me really excited to read some more!
