About the Book
Volume 1: "Originally published in Japanese as Devil ecstasy 1 and 2 by Kodansha, Ltd. Devil ecstacy first serialized in Young Magazine, Kodansha, Ltd., 2005-2006"--Copyright page.Book Synopsis
An erotic horror comedy from master storyteller Shuzo Oshimi, the creator of Blood on the Tracks, The Flowers of Evil, and Happiness. Pornographic and over the top, Devil Ecstasy nevertheless presages Oshimi's later masterworks while presenting an entirely new spin on his pitch-black worldview. There's something irresistibly charming about the artwork, and some genuinely touching moments thanks to the eminently relatable protagonists. Traumatized by big boobs at an early age, Noboru is now eighteen and looking for love...but finds more than he bargained for when he ventures into a mysterious brothel where the girls are not exactly what they seem! An early erotic masterwork from the prurient mind of Shuzo Oshimi (Blood on the Tracks and The Flowers of Evil), Devil Ecstasy is stacked with sexy demons, kinky scenarios, and abundant nudity, yet retains the emotional core that sets Oshimi's work apart. If you're looking for an oddly touching tale of demonic invasion and sexual trauma, you need look no further... Welcome to nightmare massage parlor DEVIL ECSTASY!! Ages 18+About the Author
Only in his late-thirties, Shuzo Oshimi is already considered a seasoned veteran of the Japanese comics community. Winner of the most important comics awards for newcomers, the Tetsuya Chiba Award in 2001, Oshimi has been penning quirky slice-of-life dramas now for over a decade for major manga publishers including Kodansha. After drawing nine series, Oshimi's star began to rise in 2008 with the release of his first hit, Drifting Net Cafe. This horror-themed homage to the legendary Kazu Umezzo work, Drifting Classroom, was adapted into a live-action series, and propelled Oshimi onto an international stage. He would soon reach new heights in 2009 with The Flowers of Evil.As to date he has over 13 works which include serializations and art contributions.
