Corpse Princess: Kuro

Set six months after Tagami Keisei is killed by the Shichisei—an elite group of Shikabane driven by more than lingering regrets—*Corpse Princess: Kuro* continues the conflict left in *Shikabane Hime: Aka*. Honoring Keisei’s final request, Kagami Ouri enters a temporary contract with Makina to keep her from slipping into full Shikabane corruption.

Determined to stay by her side, Ouri trains to become a legitimate monk so he can maintain their bond and support Makina in her fight against the Shichisei—the same enemies responsible for Makina’s death, the slaughter of the Hoshimura family, and Keisei’s end. Complicating the battle further, the renegade monk Shishidou Akasha aligns himself with the Shichisei, seeking to wipe out the Shikabane Hime and bring down the Kougon Sect that commands them.
