Dark Gathering, Vol. 7

ダークギャザリング [Dark Gathering] #7

by Kenichi Kondō

After a dangerous encounter with a malevolent spirit, Keitaro Gentoga wants nothing to do with the supernatural. Unfortunately for this reluctant ghost magnet, he’s stuck helping Yayoi Hozuki—a strange young girl who’s intent on capturing Japan’s most terrifying ghosts and ghouls.

Before they can tackle their next haunted site, Keitaro, Yayoi, and Eiko need to collect another of the sealed Graduates—a vengeful courtesan who’s eager to escape Yayoi’s control. However, things turn even more dangerous when Keitaro is drawn into the spirit world, forcing him to face the horrors of a haunted love hotel all on his own.

Who would’ve thought meatballs could be so menacing?

[Joshua Jonah]

The series progresses darker and darker into territories I’m loving. In this one, it gets pretty messed up and we get to see an interesting exchange with a new character and our main cast. The segment about the red river was also my favorite too as it has arguably the darkest scene in this entire series so far. Having horror with a good storyline, and really great gore is just a fantasy to me sometimes but this one is legit.

Time to step up the ghost collection because first we're collecting a graduate from an abandoned love hotel, then we're off to capture the s-rank spirit from the Old I Watergate.

But we run into a potential problem... because it seems ghosts can body snatch. And not just body snatch, but steal the memories and the skills of their new meat suits, so it's nearly impossible to tell who is really themselves. Also I don't think I'll be able to eat meatballs ever again.

4.5 ⭐️ rounded up

What is up with this series?! These storylines are insane and mind-bogglingly horrific. And I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it again, this series reminds me of Uketsu’s Strange Houses series.

I’m looking forward to seeing Otogiri, The Soul-Sucking Courtesan in action.

Normally I don’t get creeped out by horror (of any kind). This series though? Definitely fucking creepy.
