後遺症ラジオ [Kōishō Radio] #5

A deeply unsettling image anchors this fifth volume of Kōishō Radio — a fractured white surface, cracked like broken porcelain or damaged skin, from which a wide, toothy grin and a single bloodshot eye emerge alongside mechanical, speaker-like forms. The juxtaposition of organic and industrial elements creates an atmosphere of creeping wrongness that feels entirely at home in this Kōdansha horror manga. Fans of psychological and body-horror aesthetics will find this cover alone reason enough to seek out the volume.
