Strange Tales of Tokyo

Finished

東亰異聞

Twenty-nine years after Tokyo was established as the capital of Japan, the city of Kawara is plagued by a series of bizarre and mysterious crimes. Strange figures—a flame demon, a dark red princess, a fireflies seller, and puppeteers—appear near the scenes of these incidents, blurring the line between supernatural spirits and the dark side of human nature.

Journalist Hirakawa Shintaro, with the help of his friend Manzo, the owner of an inn in Asakusa, investigates these nocturnal occurrences. Their search for the truth leads them into the shadowy intrigues of the powerful Takatsukasa family, where the origins of the crimes may lie.
