Product Description
The dead don't walk in Kurosagi - that is, not without a little help... and it's a shock to the system when the delivery service finds out what's making their clients rise up! Then, for Numata to take off his sunglasses for anyone, it must be a grave matter... or, more likely, a matter of someone not yet in their grave...

Revived my love for the series! July 2, 2010

I'll have to be honest that while I've always adored the series, I've kind of lost a little interest in the series so far. I'm collecting them for sure, but it isn't one of those series that I must buy as soon as the latest volume comes out. This volume has freshened up my interest in the series, even though it is admittedly mostly filler.
The stories in this volume involve a guy bringing people back from the dead to fulfill their dark vengeance as well as a wonderful background story on Numata. (Ok, I admit that I'm a Numata fangirl!) For me, the best story was easily the one surrounding Numata, as it explained how he got his diving powers & like the blurb promised, you get to see him without his trademark sunglasses on! There's also a nice story concerning a dog & an urban legend about a monk's curse.
Overall I enjoyed this volume, but I will admit that this was pretty much filler. There's no resolution or progress on the group's mysterious rivals & other than Numata, there's really not any true character development. I almost have a feeling that if Numata wasn't one of my favorite characters in the book, I probably wouldn't have enjoyed this volume as much as I did. Luckily for me, I enjoyed it thoroughly.
Fans of the series will enjoy this volume while new fans will probably want to start with the first volume or an earlier volume. This probably won't draw them in, as the manga assumes that you've been following along. (The stories can be read as a standalone, but the readers will probably be lost as to the other parts of the book.
