Kasutoro Shiki

Synopsis

A collection of some of Kago Shintaro's works. 1. Oral Cavity Infectious Syndrome A panel of a manga on an otherwise blank page becomes self-aware and decides to create other panels so it won't be lonely. What begins as a single panel quickly turns into a story of infinite possibilities. 2. [unknown] 3. [unknown] 4. Genesis The biblical story of the Genesis revised and depicted with the usual unholy irony of Kago, with delirious situations quickly following one each other. 5. Superglue What happens when you step on something so disgusting that you never want to uncover it. 6. [unknown] 7. [unknown] 8. Multiplication A panel of a manga on an otherwise blank page becomes self-aware and decides to create other panels so it won't be lonely. What begins as a single panel quickly turns into a story of infinite possibilities. 9. Abstraction A one-shot that utilizes distilled surrealism to smash the fourth wall and every other wall it throws up. An experiment in the distinctly non-linear nature of comics. The story is not important; its visual presentation is its substance. 10. Blow-Up Macrocosm in a microcosm in a macrocosm. That's what this one-shot is about. 11. [unknown] 12. The Memories of Others Imagine your past would float after you as a series of comic panels. 13. Lord of the Ring An incompetent sumo wrestler uses the powers of a forbidden pair of pants to overcome and shame his competition, until one day someone rises to attempt to crush him and take the pants for himself. 14. [unknown] (Source: MU)
