One of the top-selling manga in Japan today, having sold more than 600,000 since March 2013, will see its English debut on comic book shelves in 2014. Demi-Human combines super-natural themes with sci-fi action for a very modern tale that should compete with most popular current manga and comic titles.
A bright high schooler has discovered to his horror that death is just a repeatabl event for him - and that humanity has no mercy for a demi-human. To avoid becoming a science experiement for the rest of his interminable life, Kei Nagai must seek out others of his kind. But what would a community of them stand for?
Volume 2 also included the AJIN pilot chapter - File: 00 The Shinya Nakamura Incident.
