ご近所の悪いうわさ [Bad Rumor in Your Neighborhood]

In this taut psychological thriller from Ohzora Press, Bad Rumor in Your Neighborhood (2014–2015) follows a quiet residential community unraveling as a series of malicious whispers spiral into paranoia and violence. Across its 22-issue run, the series explores how a single, unverified rumor can infect an entire neighborhood, turning neighbors against one another. Known for its claustrophobic atmosphere and sharp social commentary, the manga stands as a chilling examination of mob psychology and the fragility of trust in close-knit communities.
