Description

About the Book

Parasitic City #2 is the second volume in Shintaro Kago’s longest manga series to date. Set in a futuristic world where reincarnations can be purchased—provided you’ve earned enough Haramitsu points—this story imagines a society where moral behavior is tracked by internal parasites.

Blending grotesque humor with intricate worldbuilding, Kago references both Western philosophy (from Kant to Moebius) and Eastern spiritual systems. A surreal, complex narrative wrapped in his signature Ero-Guro aesthetic.

Limited first edition: 1000 copies (English version). Large A4 format, stitched binding, black and white offset print.

Soft, 21.0 x 30.0 cm, 0.72 kg, 160 pages, English
