The title itself tells exactly what you should expect from this collection: a daring mix of grotesque art and hypnotic horror. The stories are audacious and so technically accomplished in many terms. Rated R for some graphic, stomach-turning violence.

Shintaro Kago calls himself a kisou mangaka (“bizarre manga artist”) which can't be truer judging on his wide-ranging portfolio of manufacturing, painting, and selling toy figures of turds, mutilated corpses, limbless people, and deformed babies. But Kago’s manga work is far more warped than anything else he does. If you can tolerate wicked satire and disturbing subjects such as extreme sex, scatology and body modification, welcome to the world of Shintaro Kago.

Imagine a door in front of you with a sign saying “restricted area, do not enter.” You have nowhere to go and you are ever curious what's behind this restricted door. But restricted areas are restricted for a reason. You might never know what gruesome horrors and nightmares reside behind this seemingly harmless door.
