Fishbaiit’s note: (OMFG, I remember that as a kid, I watched and dubbed comic video that was called “The Groaning Drain” and I can’t tell you ENOUGH how much that story gave me nightmares; the voice acting, and the sound effects they added?! I was scared to even shower or go anywhere near the sink. Yet I ended up growing up loving the horror/thriller genre and Junji Ito’s art is just so bizarre and amazing!)

Second-year high schooler Tokio Kurohara likes to slack off in class. However, despite his attitude at school, he works alongside his childhood friend Azuma Higashi to combat the brewing injustice in their town. Choujins—supernatural beings with powers beyond mere mortals are entities that Tokio and Azuma avoid at all costs. One day, when a previously defeated thug returns to exact revenge, the two are forced into a scuffle. Unable to flee, the duo injects themselves with a drug that can turn someone into a Choujin.
Fishbaiit’s note: (I read it somewhere online and I wanted to see if I could by it but I think they will realize on December 17, I might be wrong though, I couldn’t understand any of the informations If you know anything, please do let me know.). ㅤ. (Also, It wasn’t long ago that I found out that Sui Ishida had another work of his, his one of my favorite manga artist so finding this out really caught my attention.)
