The family of Polka Shinoyama can't help noticing he's not quite himself, but discovering the young heir has been taken over by a necromancer from another world...?! Rozan Shinoyama isn't sure what to make of his son's transformation, but there's no denying this usurper is responsible for saving his twin grandchildren. The fire that would have claimed their lives has also caught the attention of the Phantom Solitaire, one of the police's slipperiest troublemakers. Known for his clever tricks, Solitaire craves a taste of real magic, which puts him hot on the trail of one unsuspecting Corpse God!

About the author

Ryohgo Narita (成田 良悟, Narita Ryōgo) is a Japanese light novelist. He won the Gold Prize in the 9th Dengeki Novel Prize for Baccano!, which was made into a TV anime in 2007.[1] His series Durarara!! was also made into a TV anime, which began airing January 2010


There are two traits found in most of Narita's works:
* Narita writes extremely fast, one volume a month if he wishes - with tons of spelling errors and missing words as a tradeoff. The editors like to leave them sometimes just for fun, though.
* His work titles often have an exclamation mark at the end (i.e. Baccano!, Vamp!, Durarara!!, etc.).

Kanji names: 成田 良悟 & 成田良悟.

Hummm… Je ne sais pas trop quoi penser de cette lecture du tome trois. J’ai aimé et en même temps je me suis pas mal ennuyé. Est-ce parce que je n’étais pas dans le bon état d’esprit ? Car certains passages trainent en long. Assez difficile à expliquer.

Dans le dernier tome, le maître des corps rencontre le père de celui dont il a pris possession du corps. Sauf que cet homme a directement remarqué que ce n’était pas Polka en face de lui. C’est un imposteur et il demande des explications.

Heureusement, le maître des corps va tout lui expliquer. L’intrigue continue à avancer et nous voyons le personnage principal et ses compagnons partir en quête d’informations.

Bon, autant dire, j’ai vraiment eu du mal à terminer ce manga (je l’ai lu sur deux jours différents, alors que normalement, je lis un manga d’une traite.). Ce n’est pas que je n’ai pas aimé, mais je trouvais que certains passages trainaient trop en longueur et qu’il n’y avait pas tant d’action que ça. J’avais déjà légèrement ce sentiment dans le deuxième tome, mais il se confirme ici.

Du coup, comme j’ai beaucoup de saga manga en cours, je ne pense pas continuer celle-ci. Ce qui est dommage, car j’avais eu un beau coup de cœur pour le premier tome.

En bref, pour ma part, la saga commence à m’ennuyer. Trop de longueur et il ne se passe pas suffisamment de chose à mes yeux. Je pense arrêter cette saga-là, même si cela est dommage, car le premier tome m’avait vraiment beaucoup plus.

picked this up following the anime

This season (2023 spring) the anime based on this wash launched. I picked up the 3rd book as the anime hasn’t yet reached here… I suspect that this book and the next one will be animated given the pacing of the show.
However, rather than waiting for them I had to read ahead.

Not disappointed and I suspect I will finish the manga available before the season of anime is complete.

Una serie que en sus inicios me fascinó pero los tomos me están costando. Muchos personajes, cambios de escena, no sabemos dónde va la cosa ni qué intenciones tiene nadie, es algo confuso y por eso me estoy ayudando del anime, el cual me está pareciendo una pasada.

He hablado con otras personas y no soy a la única que le ocurre con el manga, qué se le va a hacer.

Gracias a Distrito Manga por el ejemplar.

The oyaji power Tena has is insane and he absolutely upends the hot old man pyramid as we know it but I'm not sure this series, in which he is a side character, can realistically sustain itself solely on his ability to be funny and very cute for 20 pages each 223 page volume.

This volume gives us more background on some of the characters. the story seemed to lag somewhat. But since manga are a quick read, one needs to consider it as the normal middle of the story slump and read the info dump before the story gets better.

A slow build up with these books but ultimately I do like the pace so far. Polka has a pet alligator named snowy?!?!?? And it’s never bit him and is super chill???? I dunno I think that’s cool lol oh also there’s hentai in this one haha
