Ajin: Demi-human Volume 08

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.

High school student Kei Nagai is killed in a traffic accident but immediately revives to learn that he may not be a human after all. Instead, he may be a Demi-Human, a mysterious and almost immortal being blessed with amazing super-human abilities. Scared, he runs away and is aided in his escape by his friend Kai. Unfortunately for Kei, the manhunt is on and he will soon be caught up in a conflict between mankind and the other Demi-Humans as they prepare to fight for global supremacy.
