“Eiji Otsuka and Sho-u Tajima at it again, Eiji in a much more minor role this time, however. In any case, this a relatively older and short comedy series (4 volumes) that should be a fun break from the mayhem of MPD. In 1994, this manga was published as a whole under title “BROTHERS High School”.” -Mangareader.net

But suddenly there is a new voice in his head, and before he knows it, a young girl with her own battery of psychic abilities has arrived to challenge him! Soon, the sprawling complex becomes a battleground between two minds possessing incredible, unimaginable power. Winner of Japan’s Science Fiction Grand Prix award, the first graphic novel ever awarded such an honor, Domu comes from the boundless imagination of Katsuhiro Otomo, renowned creator of the internationally acclaimed graphic-fiction epic, Akira. A work of rare strength, Domu is both visually stunning and emotionally gripping, a terrifying tale of the paranormal set amongst the human isolation of modern urban life.” -Mangareader.net
