If people who turn into animals really existed in the modern world, how would they behave? This book gives some realistic, yet unexpected, answers.

For the first time ever, the master of horror Noroi Michiru is available [officially] in English! This two-volume collection includes his one-shots, with each page rendered in exquisite detail to showcase his splendid artwork — each panel worthy of being framed.

His concepts, artwork and narratives are as admirable as the efforts of Junji Ito, but his circulation, and consequently his fanbase, has mainly been exclusive to Japan. Available to read on Azuki manga.
