屍姫
In a world plagued by reanimated corpses known as Shikabane, humanity's defense lies in the hands of the undead themselves. The Kougon Sect of Shingon Buddhism creates Corpse Princesses—young women resurrected as powerful, immortal warriors bound by a sacred contract. Their sole purpose is to hunt and destroy the very monsters they once were.
One such Shikabane Hime is Makina, who has made a pact with the monk Keisei. To earn her peace and ascend to heaven, she must eliminate 108 Shikabane. The story begins when a group of high school students stumbles into a haunted, fire-ravaged building, only to be attacked by zombies, forcing Makina to intervene.
As Makina pursues her grim quota, a deeper conflict emerges. While she fights to protect the living from the undead hordes, society grapples with the terrifying truth that its protectors are also walking corpses. The line between savior and monster becomes dangerously blurred.
