irritatingarchery asked: Most recent Manga you read and a quick word on what you though of it. (I've always loved reading your analysis of manga)
I actually had to think about this one. I’ve been powering through my backlog, so things are a little fuzzy. I’m reasonably sure that it was volume 9 of Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service. I don’t have anything particularly deep on this one. The stories in this volume were a little too outlandish (in a series where a dude can make dead bodies talk…), but it’s a good read. The artist is Housui Yamazaki, and he has this weirdly clinical approach to nudity that I find interesting. It’s not that it’s not sexualized so much as it’s just barely sexualized and very matter of fact about things, rather than overly titillating. He’s much more exploitative about the gore, though, and the contrast is curious.
I need to write about manga more, actually, it’s been a little while since I dug into something.
