The Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service

The Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service

A manga about five college graduates who form a company that deals in solving the problems of the dead.

We’ve discussed this on a recent episode.

I know Morgana loves this series but I finally got a chance to read it and I can see why. I love the cast of characters who each have a unique ability that writer Eiji Otsuka created. Each member of the group in versed in a different skill that helps them track down and solve problems of their dead clientele. I also enjoyed Housui Yamazaki fun horror art when the corpses rise to seek revenge. While the series starts as episodic mysteries that jumps from case to case, the 2nd volume is one long story arc that heavily involves the backstory of one of the core members. I really enjoyed that longer story in the 2nd volume so I hope the other volumes will also be longer deeper stories. I look forward to reading more!

Available from Dark Horse Comics.
