Kurosagi - Livraison de cadavres

In this darkly comic horror-mystery series from Pika Édition, a group of Buddhist university students in Japan form a unique delivery service: they transport and dispose of corpses, but their sideline involves solving the mysteries behind the deaths. Running from 2006 to 2018 across 21 issues, Kurosagi - Livraison de cadavres blends supernatural elements with procedural crime, anchored by the deadpan humor and macabre sensibility of its creators. The series is best known for its offbeat premise and the distinctive art of Housui Yamazaki, whose detailed, moody style brings the grim yet oddly charming world to life. It matters as a cult favorite that deftly balances the sacred and the profane, offering a fresh take on the dead-body-of-the-week formula.
