And speaking of ghosts, when supposedly dead people start turning up walking and talking, Section 9 begins to look into the possibility that corpses are being "puppeted" from a remote location, and some serious powerbrokers may be pulling the strings.

On a coaching journey in the Bayankala Mountain Range in the Qinghai Province of China, his father Genma and Ranma Saotome belong to the cursed springs at Jusenkyo. They take the physical kind of whatever drowned there hundreds or 1000s of years past every time they touch cold-water when somebody falls into a spring. The hex will revert when exposed until their chilly water exposure to hot-water. While Ranma falls into the springtime of a drowned woman Genma falls to the springtime of a panda.
Upon returning to Japan, the pair settle in Nerima, Tokyo in the dojo of Genma's old friend Soun Tendo, a fellow professional of Musabetsu Kakuto Ryu or "Anything-Goes School" of martial-arts which Genma passed on to Ranma. Soun and Genma concurred years ago that their kids would marry and carry-on the Tendo Dojo. Soun has three teenaged daughters: the somewhat spiteful, martial-arts, the indifferent and selfish Nabiki and the easygoing and polite Kasumi training Akane. Akane, who's Ranma's age, is named for bridal duty by her sisters using the logical thinking that because Ranma is just a guy half of that time period and Akane dislikes guys, they're perfect together. Both Akane and Ranma refuse the betrothal initially, having not been consulted on the conclusion, however they can be usually handled as betrothed and wind up saving or helping each other on some events. They can be generally found in the business of each other and therefore are always claiming in their own hallmark clumsy love-hate mode which is a franchise focus.
Ranma goes to school with Akane at Furinkan High School (Furinkan Koko), where he fulfills his revenant adversary Tatewaki Kuno, the conceited kendo team captain who vigorously pursues Akane, but in addition falls in-love with Ranma's female form without actually finding his hex (despite most other figures understanding it). Nerima functions as a backdrop for mo-Re martial-arts mayhem with all the debut of Ranma's routine competitions, like the eternally lost Ryoga Hibiki who traveled half-way across Japan becoming to the rear in the very front of his home, where Ranma spent three times waiting for him. Where he finally falls to the Spring of Drown Piglet, Ryoga, seeking revenge on Ranma, adopted him to Jusenkyo. Now when splashed with cold-water he takes the kind of a small pig. Not understanding this, Akane requires the piglet as names and a pet it Pchan, but Ranma understands and loathes him for using the scenario and keeping this key. Another competitor is the nearsighted Mousse, who becomes a duck when he gets damp and also falls into the pool that is magic, last but not least, there's Ranma's impish grand-master, Happosai, who spends his time stealing the panties of schoolgirls.
Ranma's future paramours range from the martial-arts rhythmic gymnastics champ his 2nd fiancee and youth pal Ukyo Kuonji, and Kodachi Kuno the seller that is okonomiyaki, combined with the Chinese Amazon Shampoo, supported by her greatgrandmother Cologne. As the show progresses, the college becomes more eccentric using the return of the demented, Hawaii- the keeping the energy as well as obsessed Principal Kuno -leeching switching kid/adult Hinako Ninomiya as Ranma's English teacher. Ranma's irresolution to decide on his love that is true causes turmoil in college life and his intimate

The King of Iron fist tournament usually centers in the feud between the Mishima family, and the 6th iteration of this tournament is by no means different in such aspect... However 'family feud' is a little bit of an understatement when we look at the full scale world war that is being waged between the corporations lead by Kazuya Mishima (father) and Jin Kazama (son).
The story of the manga focus in this feud, but through the perspective of Asuka Kazama, meddlesome girl that likes to prevent conflict and punish evil doers using her family inherited Kazama Ryuu kobujutsu. Her strong sense of justice forces her to take a stand against the chaos that her cousin Jin Kazama is wrecking at a worldwide scale. Asuka is virtually a town hero in Osaka and is known for having little patience, so "saving the world" by smacking around Jin sounds right about her area of specialty.
.... Unfortunately for Asuka, before she can properly engage in her destined battle, she happens to stumble into Lili Rochefort, her self proclaimed rival who is in desperate need of a bloody rematch to avenge an humiliating lost to Asuka in the previous tournament... Lili will certainly not budge at anything before having her sweet victory against the Kazama style, and will follow Asuka everywhere until she can achieve this... And just like that, Asuka's "world rescue plan" gets over shadowed by the necessity of getting Lili out of her life, without totally demolishing every bone of her 'only daughter of rich father', 'spoiled egoistic sadist princess' sweet little body.
Has the bonds of an unlikely friendship just been formed?

In this *very* zany take on the dramatic series by Buronson and Tetsuo Hara, the end of the century… wasn't so bad, actually. A *very* special and brave Holy Emperor, Souther, wants to become more "involved" and to be on "friendly terms" with the noble Kenshiro & his posse. *Especially* Kenshiro. Due to his very outgoing nature, he also crashes the homes of his other buddies, often when they *especially* don't want him to show up! Join Souther as he releases his feelings in heart-throbbing, mind-bending confessions, settles complex and engrossing territorial disputes with deep and intricate consequences, enjoys the simple and introspective pleasures of a quiet dinner, and climbs the top of the rough and brutal pyramid that is the idol world - with the help of his best buddies, of course! Maybe even Kenshiro will be there - who knows! By the time it got its anime in 2015, *Strawberry Flavor* had sold over 1 million copies in Japan. The anime was composed of 2-minute long, abridged adaptations of select chapters from the first three volumes. They were placed after the main episodes of *DD Fist of the North Star* season 2. Every volume also contains at least one *gaiden* (side story). These gaiden are drawn in Yukito's (the elder sister of Yukito Imouto) normal artstyle, and expand on characters who did not receive gaiden during the Hokuto Gaiden period in the late 2000's. Gaiden List: Volume 1: Spade, Club & Diamond, Heart Volume 2: Souther Volume 3: Shuren & Huey Volume 4: Fudo Volume 5: Yuda Volume 6: Shin Volume 7: Falco & friends, Ein Volume 8: Ogai Volume 9: Devil Rebirth

A disturbing manga inspired by an even more disturbing movie of the same name (aka Suicide Club). As you might expect, they both deal with the theme of suicide. However, the plots of the manga and movie are significantly different, so don't wory about spoilers and such. Finally, I'd just like to point out that the manga isn't for the faint of heart, and the movie even more so.

Tokiwa Kanenari likes to masquerade as a substitute science teacher, but he's actually in the business of dealing with the spirit world. And there are spirits in all sorts of things around him, from amber necklaces to unfinished paintings and even abandoned satellites.
Still in her early twenties, beautiful Toshiko Tomura has won the Akutagawa Prize for her story "The Book of Human Insects." The great honor is not her first: she has previously won the New York Design Academy Award, before which she was the lead actress of an established theatrical troupe. Yet, while the media go abuzz, the woman in the limelight slips away from the metropolis; what the sole paparazzo who manages to trail her to an abandoned country house witnesses is an immobile figure of an old woman and the star herself, naked, in a reverie as bizarre as it is erotic...
Six months ago, Karukozaka High School was sucked into the demon world, and in the ensuing chaos, only two survivors emerged: Nobu, who defeated the Demon Lord that took over the school, and Yumi, who possesses latent demon powers of her own.
Although they're both trying to put the incident behind them, the gateway to the Underworld remains open, and soon Nobu finds himself battling demons right on the streets of Tokyo. The reason for this infestation is simple: a secret organization is trying to establish a Demon Kingdom on Earth by summoning demons through the gateway.
Nobu and Yumi are the only people to have been to the Underworld and survived, so they may have the power to stop the infestation but before that can even happen, they'll have to find each other first.

Dororo is a thriller manga, which revolves around a ronin during the Sengoku period. He was born malformed, limbless and without facial features or internal organs. This was the result of his birth father daimyo Daigo Kagemitsu forging a pact with 48 sealed demons so that he might rule the world. In return, he promised the demons could each obtain a piece of his unborn child's body. This enabled them to roam free and commit atrocities along the countryside.
After his mother was forced to set him adrift on the river, lest he be killed by his father, the infant was subsequently found and raised by Dr. Honma, a medicine man who used healing magic and alchemical methods to give the child prostheses crafted from the remains of children who had died in the war. The boy became nearly invincible against any mortal blow as a result of the prostheses and healing magic. Grafted into his left arm was a very special blade that a travelling storyteller presented to Dr. Honma, believing it was fated to be within his possession given that ever since the boy had been discovered, the doctor had been visited by goblins. As revealed in a short tale about the blade's origin, the blade had been forged out of vengeance to kill goblins as well as other supernatural entities.
After the doctor was forced to send him on his way because he was attracting demons, the young man learned from a ghostly voice of the curse that had be set upon him at birth and that by killing the demons responsible he could reclaim the stolen pieces of his body and thus regain his humanity. Across his travels, he earned the name "Hyakkimaru" (????) among other names for his inhuman nature. On one such hunt of a demon, Hyakkimaru came across a young orphan thief named Dororo who thereafter travels by his side through the war-torn countryside.
