Description
SURVIVE, THEY SAID. HAVE HOPE, THEY SAID. The world is no longer what it used to be. Shojo-ferocious, ape-like creatures who feed on humans-roam the land, and anyone who's bitten becomes infected with the same mysterious virus. Humanity has resisted by building aerial cities and forming special units called Guards to fight back. Among them, a young man with a blank stare battles without regard for his life-Minami. People call him a messiah, but their only hope has a constant death wish and defends them day in and day out simply because he still breathes... A dark post-apocalyptic fantasy from the creator of Devils' Line, Ryo Hanada!
Author Biography
Ryo Hanada (June 15, 1987) is one of the rising stars of Japanese comics today. Winner of SquareEnix's 2012 Young GanGan Manga Award's Special Prize for her submission BLIND, she quickly caught the attention of bigger publishers. After a couple of years in self-publishing, in 2013 she made her professional debut with Kodansha's premiere manga magazine MORNING (publishers of mega-hits such as Chi's Sweet Home, Drops of God, Vagabond). Her first work for them was Devil's Line.
