Description:

A collection of some of Kago Shintaro's works. 1. Oral Cavity Infectious Syndrome A panel of a manga on an otherwise blank page becomes self-aware and decides to create other panels so it won't be lonely. What begins as a single panel quickly turns into a story of infinite possibilities. 2. [unknown] 3. [unknown] 4. Genesis The biblical story of the Genesis revised and depicted with the usual unholy irony of Kago, with delirious situations quickly following one each other. 5. Superglue What happens when you step on something so disgusting that you never want to uncover it. 6. [unknown] 7. [unknown] 8. Multiplication A panel of a manga on an otherwise blank page becomes self-aware and decides to create other panels so it won't be lonely. What begins as a single panel quickly turns into a story of infinite possibilities. 9. Abstraction A one-shot that utilizes distilled surrealism to smash the fourth wall and every other wall it throws up. An experiment in the distinctly non-linear nature of comics. The story is not important; its visual presentation is its substance. 10. Blow-Up Macrocosm in a microcosm in a macrocosm. That's what this one-shot is about. 11. [unknown] 12. The Memories of Others Imagine your past would float after you as a series of comic panels. 13. Lord of the Ring An incompetent sumo wrestler uses the powers of a forbidden pair of pants to overcome and shame his competition, until one day someone rises to attempt to crush him and take the pants for himself. 14. [unknown] (Source: MU)

Enter the strange world of Imiri Sakabashira, whose denizens are zoomorphic creatures that emerge from one another as well as their equally bizarre environs. The Box Man follows its protagonists along a scooter trip through a complex landscape that oscillates between a dense city, a countryside simplified to near abstraction, and hybrids of the two; the theme of hybridity permeates throughout. One is unsurprised to encounter a creature that is half elderly man, half crab, or a flying frog in this world where our guide apparent is an anthropomorphic, mollusk-like cat. Sakabashira weaves this absurdist tale into a seamless tapestry constructed of elements as seemingly disparate as Japanese folklore, pop culture, and surrealism.Within these panels, it becomes difficult to distinguish between the animate and the inanimate, the real and the imagined—a tension that adds a layer of complexity to this near-wordless psychedelic travelogue. Imiri Sakabashira (real name Mochizuki Katsuhiro) was born in Shizuoka, Japan, in 1964, the same year that Garo, the influential manga anthology in which he would first be published, was founded. -Amazon.com
