After the cut, the latest from Dark Horse on their new manga title, MPD-Psycho, written by Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service creator Eiji Otsuka. And DH is promising the original uncut version, which sounds like it will earn its shrink-wrap and 18+ rating. Check it out.
Uncut, uncensored, and until now, unavailable– MPD-Psycho is here!
MPD-Psycho was deemed too shocking for other publishers, with violent images that most thought were too graphic for the American public.
But coming this June, the most-requested manga series in recent memory will be presented uncut and uncensored from Dark Horse Comics. Brace yourself for a dark journey into madness: Eiji Otsuka and Sho-u Tajima’s MPD-Psycho.
Police detective Kobayashi Yousuke’s life is changed forever after a serial killer notices something “special” about the detective. Kobayashi is stable police detective until he witnesses the killer he’s hunting mutilate Kobayashi’s own girlfriend. The event triggers several dormant personalities that push Kobayashi into a complex tempest of deviants and evil forces, ultimately creating a multiple personality detective.
Earning praise for its consistently shocking plotlines and Sho-u Tajima’s clean, arresting art style, MPD-Psycho is the manga event of the decade. The title was rated the eighth most wanted Japanese series in U.S. fan polls and has sold more than four million copies in Japan.
MPD-Psycho is written by novelist and manga visionary Eiji Otsuka, author of The Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service, with sleek, stylish art from Sho-u Tajima. MPD-Psycho comes shrink-wrapped and carries an 18+ content advisory.
The trade paperback arrives on sale June 6 and retails for $10.95. Prepare for gory!

Hey, nice to see MPD Psycho make it! :D Actually, it wasn’t too violent, it was an issue with the rights that stopped people from bringing it over here earlier. I heard from THE ENGINE ages ago that attempts had been made, but they were all stalled because of the wrangle over the rights.
How we gotta see Homonculus. :D
