Corpse Party - Coupling x Anthology

Corpse Party: Coupling x Anthology is a manga collection released to expand upon the lore of the long-running horror franchise created by Makoto Kedouin. The series, which originated as an indie game developed on the PC-98 in the 1990s, focuses on students trapped in the haunted Heavenly Host Elementary School. This anthology specifically focuses on the interpersonal relationships and alternative scenarios involving the characters, offering a lighter or more character-driven perspective compared to the main series' primary focus on gruesome survival horror.

The anthology features contributions from various artists, curated to maintain the dark, atmospheric tone established by Kedouin. It serves as a companion piece to the larger multimedia project, which has spanned video games, live-action films, and various print adaptations. The work is designed to satisfy the established fan base's interest in the emotional development of the ensemble cast, providing context to the bonds formed during their traumatic experiences in the school.
