Description

This is the newest work by Reiko Shimizu.. The series is a disturbing manga about solving murder cases by applying the newly developed method of viewing the memories of dead people's brains. And as in every manga done by this mangaka, weird supernatural forces are of course included.

The first chapter is actually a prologue and is concentrated on the first case where this method was used. Chapter 2 is when the two main characters are introduced, so hang on!

Himitsu won the manga excellence prize of the 15th Japan Media Arts Festival Awards, and was also a finalist for Osamu Tezuka Culture Award in 6th (2002).

NOTE: There is a related anime with episodes based on selected chapters from the manga.
