I translated the Goth novel, and it is one creepy book.
The manga is also excellent, but personally, I would recommend reading the novel first - the manga makes some quite bold changes to the story, and I suspect those changes would greatly diminish the impact of the novel. |

Why is everything goth these days? It's like using the word Xtreme with everthing a decade ago.  |

That's great news. Here's hoping it's another nice hardback edition like the Tatsumi short story anthologies. |
