Hyakki Yakōshō #32

Hyakki Yakōshō, translated as Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, is a long-running horror and supernatural manga series written and illustrated by Ichiko Ima. Debuting in 1995, the series focuses on Ritsu Iijima, a young man who inherits the ability to see spirits and must navigate the complicated lives of the supernatural entities that gravitate toward his family. The series is celebrated for its atmospheric, understated approach to folklore, prioritizing human-centric emotional weight over shock value.

The thirty-second volume continues Ima’s signature aesthetic, characterized by sparse, elegant linework and a focus on the mundane intersections between the modern world and the yokai realm. Throughout its multi-decade run, the series has maintained a dedicated following for its consistent quality and thematic depth. Like earlier installments, this volume serves as a continuation of the episodic anthology format that established Ima as a master of the quiet supernatural genre in the shojo and josei manga markets.
