Time Killers: Kazue Kato Short Story Collection

I love the author and the series Blue Exorcist. Once I found out they made a book of short stories I just had to get it. 😁

Amazing short story collection! All the stories where really interesting and varied in length to give variety! The manga also included some colour pages which where beautiful! I like the way that although all the stories where written by the same person the art style varied depending on the story! Great add to the collection!

Great delivery, good item

Very good!

Great book would recommend.

I haven't read Kazue Kato before, but Blue Exorcist has been on my tbr list for ages. The art in this collection of shorts is absolutely beautiful. She is a first-rate manga artist. The stories are all dark, depressing or weird; my kind of stuff basically. The first story is pretty dark and I really liked it. About an assassin and the son of a doctor he attacks who become friends in a strange way. The next story has rabbits and the message in the end is we all have to move forward no matter what heartbreak we face along the way; we can't live in the past. Later on a short where mommy beats up daddy, ok.... moving right along a princess wears paper doll clothes with tabs which means she shows up naked from the backside view. Back to being serious with a short but sentimental story of a homeless dad whose daughter almost dies from illness until he starts his own business. ... haunting mysterious sea creature. Then along comes a fantastic story featuring space aliens about the meaning of life and a decidedly strong Christian message. Finally, the book ends with the first Blue Exorcist one-shot which is totally excellent and now has moved up further on my tbr list.

This is a certain MUST BUY for those who love Blue Exorcist (My personal favourite Manga) and the Mangaka (aka artist/author) Kazue Kato. it tells a series of one-shot stories that Kato has done in the past prior to Blue Exorcist including the one-shot story, The Miyama-Uguisu Mansion Incident, that lead to the Blue Exorcist's serialization (and rightly so, the one-shot is a masterpiece). Another one-shot before it, Astronerd, is also a great read.Just as the title says, this is a great read to kill time with!

Great stories from Kazue Kato.
