Endorsed by Junji Ito, Occult Horror meets Rom-Com!

A terrified occult obsessive drags a reluctant classmate into haunted locations and supernatural mysteries in this hilarious, heartwarming horror adventure.

Kuruno is obsessed with the occult. There’s just one problem: she’s absolutely terrified of it.

When high-school student Yuuki is contacted online by the mysterious Kuruno, he finds himself dragged into a series of increasingly strange expeditions to investigate the supernatural. From the infamous Kisaragi Station and Chupacabra sightings to cursed houses, haunted locations and mysterious local legends, Kuruno is determined to experience the occult first-hand… even if she has to force Yuuki to come along for the ride.
But beneath her enthusiasm lies a surprising secret: Kuruno is a complete scaredy-cat, relying on Yuuki to find the courage to face the things she loves most. As the pair encounter one bizarre situation after another, their dangerous and often hilarious adventures begin to bring them closer together.

Blending supernatural horror, Japanese urban legends, school-life comedy and an unexpected romantic spark, this is an offbeat occult adventure with plenty of heart. Created by manga artist Kusada, whose previous work includes the two-volume ninja comedy Senpai Was a Ninja, the series has also received a recommendation from legendary horror creator Junji Ito.

An overpowered returner shatters the elite hero academy system, explosive battles, ruthless rivalries, and unstoppable strength collide in a high-octane isekai power fantasy.

After surviving a brutal otherworldly war and training under an unimaginably powerful demon king, a former hero returns to Earth forever changed.

As rankings are challenged and rivalries ignite, his overwhelming power begins to upend the academy’s fragile hierarchy. What was meant to be a system of order quickly spirals into chaos as one student effortlessly surpasses every expectation. Yet beneath the surface, deeper threats and hidden truths begin to emerge, hinting that the world he left behind may not be finished with him.

Written by Chiaki Konno and illustrated by fame, this series delivers a sharp, action-packed take on the isekai genre. Combining relentless pacing, striking battles, and a protagonist who rewrites every rule, it’s a must-read for fans of domination-driven fantasy.

Rock ’n’ Roll never grows old! A single mother chasing her abandoned musical dream meets a singer with the perfect voice, this manga is the story of their new band’s quest for stardom.

Once upon a time, BRAIN DRAIN were the beloved stars of children’s TV. Then the band fell apart, and guitarist Ria’s life took a very different direction.

Now a single mother working at a supermarket, Ria has never abandoned her love of rock. Determined to form a new band and pursue the music she believes in, she is searching for the right people to join her. Then she encounters Maria, a woman whose voice is exactly what Ria has been looking for.

Their meeting could be the beginning of something special. Both women even share the same “Maria” reading in their names – a strange coincidence that seems to call more Marias into their orbit. Soon, the seeds of a new band are being planted, and Ria’s dream of returning to the stage begins to take shape.

Blending rock ’n’ roll, comedy, friendship and grounded adult drama, this is a story about second chances and refusing to let age, work or family responsibilities kill your creative dreams. Written by manga artist and DJ Hiroki Muramatsu, creator of DJ Road, and drawn by acclaimed gag manga artist Yoshio Kawashima, Revenge of the Rock ’n’ Roll Sisters brings a distinctive, irreverent energy to the music manga genre.

A struggling artist meets a mountain god in this heartwarming supernatural tale where creativity, folklore, and quiet humour intertwine in a beautifully reflective story about inspiration and unexpected companionship.

When deadlines loom and inspiration runs dry, the last thing a struggling manga artist expects is divine intervention.

After retreating to the countryside in search of a fresh start, a burnt-out creator encounters an eccentric mountain god, an ancient being with a surprising interest in modern manga. What begins as a chance meeting quickly turns into an unusual arrangement: the artist will create stories to entertain the god, in exchange for a place to stay and a chance to rediscover their passion.

As the seasons change, so too does their relationship. Between quiet moments in nature and gentle supernatural encounters, the artist begins to heal from creative exhaustion, finding new meaning in both their work and life. But beneath the calm lies a deeper connection between the human and the divine, one that may change them both forever.

From Rei Yamada comes a beautifully understated manga that blends Japanese folklore with a thoughtful exploration of creativity. With soft, atmospheric storytelling and a focus on emotional growth, this is a must-read for fans of reflective, character-driven fantasy.
