Ajin: Demi-Human, Volume 10

AJIN combines super-natural themes with sci-fi action for a very modern high-paced yarn that should compete with most popular current manga and comic titles. High school student Kei Nagai is killed in a traffic accident, but immediately revives to learn that he may not be human at all. Instead, he may be a Demi-Human, a mysterious almost immortal being blessed with amazing super-human abilities...

High school student Kei Nagai is killed in a traffic accident, but immediately revives to learn that he may not be human at all. Instead, he may be a Demi-Human, a mysterious almost immortal being blessed with amazing super-human abilities...

Under duress, the Ministry of Welfare, which has been abusing demi-humans, is ready to negotiate with them. Yet Sato can't resist giving the screw another turn.

For his ultimate "wave" Sato has taken on Iruma Base, the hardest of hard targets, while the Prime Minister is onsite. The unexpected grit of Japanis Self-Defense Forces delights him to no end. Having fallen out with his right-hand man Tanaka, however, may come back to bite the jolly ex-marine.

How might one silence a nationis command structure in just two hours? By being devious and undying, for starters-and taking over Japan is exactly what Sato threatens for his "final wave," now that Iruma Base has fallen to his merry gang. Goodbye, Prime Minister.

There's a snag: Sato isn't biting. The terrorist mastermind's reason for abstaining from violence is almost as psychopathic as his earlier sprees. Luckily, coldblooded hero Kei knows what makes his adversary tick.

Sato's bitten. Samuel T. Owen is in the building. The Battle of Forge Safety, which began when demi-humans who aim to upend Japanese society waltzed into an ambush set by those who would deny them the pleasure, reaches its crescendo and conclusion in this volume.
