"The second volume in the adventures of Shigeru Mizuki's bizarre yokai boy Kitaro and his gaggle of otherworldly friends. These seven stories date from the golden age of Gegege no Kitarō, when Mizuki had perfected the balance of folklore, comedy, and horror that made Kitaro one of Japan's most beloved characters. The comics in [this manga] are appearing in English for the first time in this kid-friendly edition. In addition to more than 150 pages of Mizuki's all-ages monster fun, 'Kitaro Meets Nurarihyon' includes bonus materials: 'Yokai Files' that introduce Japan's folklore monsters and a 'History of Kitaro' essay by translator Zack Davisson."--Publisher data. |
