Tezuka, Osamu

From time immemorial to the age of space colonization, there is one legend that has stayed unchanged in every history book—the tale of the immortal bird Phoenix. A being whose blood is said to grant eternal life or wisdom, the radiant figure ensures the continuation of sentient life in the universe as it oversees human civilizations and their development.

Yet, mankind remains a slave to its habits; from happiness and sorrow, to wrath and love, a myriad of emotions continue to play an integral part of human life. Simultaneously, time and time again, certain beliefs and agendas persist over the centuries to disturb the fragile equilibrium of the world's preordained nature and principles. It appears that fate, with its dynamic variables, can manifest itself in many ways—and oftentimes exhibits a bizarre sense of humor.

Kekkai Sensen centers around the crime-fighting organization "Libra" and their battles in Hellsalem's Lot, formerly known as New York City. Hellsalem's Lot was created in a single night when a portal to the "Beyond" opened, and now it is a paranormal melting pot of monsters, magic, and the everyday mundane city life. It's up to Libra to prevent the horrors of this city from spreading to the outside world.

When mild-mannered Leonard Watch arrives in the city, he's inducted into Libra and things spiral out of control from there.

Kekkai Sensen: Back 2 Back

血界戦線 Back 2 Back

In the span of a single night, human history was redefined. Destroyed and rebuilt anew, New York City was transformed into Hellsalem's Lot, a metropolis blending humdrum city life with that of The Beyond—a mystical realm transcending human comprehension. Three years later, humans and otherworldly beings have managed to coexist in a city where violence and mayhem have become commonplace. Surrounded by a near-impenetrable barrier of fog, exchange with the outside world is strictly regulated, keeping the mysteries of The Beyond well-contained within. To maintain a balance, the secret society Libra protects both the city and the outside world from its dangers.

Leonardo "Leo" Watch, a victim of Hellsalem's Lot's unpredictable madness, was bestowed with The Eyes of God, a supernatural gift that grants him superhuman sight but at the cost of his sister's eyesight. Having stayed in the city to research his condition, Leo seeks out Libra as his next lead. However, the organization finds that Leo's abilities can aid them in their cause and inducts him into their ragtag group in exchange for their assistance. Now an unlikely member of their team, Leo accompanies the fearsome but pure-hearted leader Klaus von Reinherz and the other colorful members of Libra on dangerous, high-stakes missions to ensure the safety of a city that never sleeps.

血界戦線

Mochizuki, Jun

There once lived a vampire known as Vanitas, hated by his own kind for being born under a full blue moon, as most arise on the night of a crimson one. Afraid and alone, he created the Book of Vanitas, a cursed grimoire that would one day take his vengeance on all vampires; this is how the story goes, at least.

Vanitas no Karte follows Noé Archiviste, a young man who is traveling aboard an airship in 19th-century Paris with one goal in mind: to find the Book of Vanitas. A sudden vampire attack leads him to meet the enigmatic Vanitas, a doctor who specializes in vampires and, much to Noé's surprise, an entirely ordinary human. The mysterious doctor has inherited both the name and the infamous text from the Vanitas of legend, using the grimoire to heal his patients. But behind his kind demeanor lies something a bit more sinister.

Urushibara, Yuki

Mushi: the most basic forms of life in the world. They exist without any goals or purposes aside from simply "being." They are beyond the shackles of the words good and evil. Mushi can exist in countless forms and are capable of mimicking things from the natural world such as plants, diseases, and even phenomena like rainbows.

This is, however, just a vague definition of these entities that inhabit the vibrant world, as to even call them a form of life would be an oversimplification. Detailed information on mushi is scarce because the majority of humans are unaware of their existence. So what are mushi and why do they exist? This is the question that a Mushishi, Ginko, ponders constantly. Mushishi are those who research mushi in hopes of understanding their place in the world's hierarchy of life.

Ginko relentlessly chases rumors of occurrences that could be tied to mushi, all for the sake of finding an answer. It could, after all, lead to the meaning of life itself.
