Synopsis

In an isolated village, two twins were born, separated by day and night. It is years later, and while the older brother Yuru has become a hunter of animals, his sister Asa has been locked away in a cage, ordered to perform a special duty that prohibits her from meeting more than a few select individuals.

On an otherwise inconspicuous day, a group of armed men riding in helicopters, referred to as "dragons" by the citizens, assaults the village in search of Yuru, killing everyone else on sight. When Yuru attempts to meet up with Asa and flee, he finds a dead body instead—on top of that, the person who killed her claims to be Yuru's true twin sister.

Before the woman can capture him, Yuru is rescued by a man named Dera, an outsider who frequently visits the village. However, it is not long before the two are cornered. In a last-ditch effort, Dera makes Yuru give a gift to the deity of the village, summoning a pair of "tsugai" whose existence is bound to reveal the truth behind these chaotic events.

Preliminary (5/? eps)
A young man discovering what really rests beyond the veil of his humble village begins to learn that the world and the details of his life were nothing more than a façade. An opening chapter that has caught my attention like none other Yomi no Tsugai is a fresh taste that people will be talking about for the years to come!

The work of Arakawa, Hiromu has long been recognized since the cultural uprising across the world that came along Full Metal Alchemist in the yearly 2000's, and her work is just as stunning in the coming forth of Yomi no Tsugai.

Worth the read!

Preliminary (4/? eps)
Fish-out-of-water protagonist learns about a world of user-specific spiritual hijinks, with the typical spread of blood-tie motivations and power-grabs. The pitch isn't that revolutionary.

That said, the introductions are digestible, not overly-explanatory, and very early in there's a good mix of subversions, humor and stakes/danger. It's fun learning details about the world history to tie together cultures, locations and histories. Assuming the mangaka stays on the ball like she has with previous work (which I trust her to), I could see this growing into a much more discussed and anticipated work globally.

Characters are charming, mesh well together and while it's hard not to box ...

Preliminary (20/? eps)
I really like this manga. It's a nice blend of action and intrigue that also veers into supernatural horror at points. It can get quite brutal, often very suddenly.

Some people have complained about the slow pacing -- and it's definitely slow-ish compared to many other properties out there currently -- but I find this deliberate progression refreshing. It gives you a lot of time to sit with the world and the characters. Which makes sense, as this looks like it's going to be a very character-driven story that relies a lot on the personal growth and motivations of the main cast to move things ...
