The acclaimed new horror drama from the creator of Flowers of Evil

THE THIRST

Nothing interesting in happening in Makoto Ozaki's first year of high school. HIs life is a series of quiet humiliations: low-grade bullies, unreliable friends, and the constant frustration of his adolescent lust. But one night, a pale, thin girl knocks him to the ground in an alley and offers him a choice.

Now everything is different. Daylight is searingly bright. Food tastes awful. And worse than anything is the terrible, consuming thirst. The tiny shames of his old life have been replaced by two towering horrors: the truth of what will slake his awful craving, and high school itself.
“A stunning new horror manga. A supernatural story that blends coming-of-age suburban humor and life (ala STRANGER THINGS and PAPER GIRLS) with the horrific, and it’s fantastic!” -Third Eye Comics
 
“Shuzo Oshimi is a manga artist who is not afraid to play with your feelings. Refreshing…in a well explored genre.” -Turnaround Blog

"A rare vampire manga with bite: Smart, stylish, and unsettling." -The Manga Critic
