Kurosagi: Služba pro doručování mrtvol Série
Tato manga sleduje skupinu mladých lidí, kteří si vydělávají na živobytí převážením mrtvol. Nejde však o obyčejnou službu; často se setkávají s paranormálními jevy, duchy a nevyřešenými záhadami spojenými se zesnulými. Každý případ nabízí směsici hororu, černého humoru a melancholického zamyšlení nad životem a smrtí. Série zkoumá lidskou povahu prostřednictvím objektivu nadpřirozena, přičemž tým se musí vyrovnávat nejen s mrtvými, ale i s jejich vlastními traumaty.
