Ajin: Demi-human Volume 17

SAY YOU GET HIT BY A TRUCK AND DIE. YOU COME BACK TO LIFE. GOOD OR BAD?

For high schooler Kei, and for at least forty-six others, immortality comes as the nastiest surprise ever. Sadly for Kei, but refreshingly for the reader, such a feat doesn’t make him a superhero. In the eyes of both the general public and governments, he’s a rare specimen who needs to be hunted down and handed over to scientists to be experimented on for life, a demi-human who must die a thousand deaths for the benefit of humanity.

The final confrontation is here but even if Kei Nagai can catch up to the fleeing Sato…can he stop him?! If he succeeds in defeating Sato, will there be a place for demi-humans in a world transformed by the revelation of their existence?

It all comes down to this epic showdown, in the final volume of what has emerged as one of the great action manga of the last decade. Ajin raises questions of what motivates us, what matters to us and what it means to be human.
