Kemono Jihen

怪物事変

Kabane is a boy his mountain village treats as something less than human. He is made to work the fields. The villagers call him Dorotabo, the name of a mud yokai. When livestock start dying in strange ways an occult detective based in Tokyo comes to investigate. His name is Inugami. The case shows him that Kabane is half ghoul, and it ends with Kabane leaving the village for Inugami's Tokyo office. Kemono, monsters who keep out of human sight, are the agency's business. Kabane's new coworkers are boys with monster blood as well. Shiki fights with spider thread, while Akira freezes things. The mystery of his missing parents nags at Kabane too. Readers who like yokai mysteries and found family stories will feel at home.
