Vol. 13 - First Story Arc
Men who use the internet to prey on girls and runaways find their bodies under control of a girl who can push them into suicide. This features the first of two appearances in this volume of the three roboticists from the third omnibus, so I guess they're going to be the go-to expositionists for science stories just like Dr. Jenny Kayama is the source for all things psychological. Also, a revelation is made about the relationship between two of the delivery service members.
Vol. 13 - Second Story Arc
It's a riff on 12 Angry Men as the group's hacker pulls duty on a panel ruling on a murder trial and finds herself swayed by a fellow panel member with synesthesia who claims the accused has an innocent aura.
Vol. 13 - Third Story Arc
The crew takes an odd job weeding in a public park. But what's the secret ingredient making this garden grow?
Vol. 14 - First Story Arc
The most unnecessarily complex segment features impostors posing as the KCDS and a politician trying to wrangle the completion of a dam in his district despite championing a ban on dams elsewhere.
Vol. 14 - Second Story Arc
The oddest arc in the book is presented in a different, more cartoonish drawing style as the pilot episode of a TV series loosely based on KCDS. These American characters all have different names and slightly different powers and personalities. And most of them are pizza delivery guys who get pulled into investigating corpses whose tattoos have been carved off.
Vol. 14 - Third Story Arc
A delivery to a museum of execution and torture devices devolves into yet another conspiracy of crooked politicians.
Vol. 15 - First Story Arc
A survey of Japanese people over 100 years old according to town records to see if they are still alive has the KCDS taking charge of an aged homeless woman with memory issues who leads them to Tono, Japan, in a story that pays tribute to the folklore enshrined by Kunio Yanagita in his century-old collection of tales. The best story of the volume.
Vol. 15 - Second Story Arc
A tale of feuding motorcycle gangs takes a Kurosagi twist when a third, headless gang starts riding the streets. Corny.
Vol. 15 - Third Story Arc
In a case of "Too soon?" storytelling, the KCDS heads into the danger zone in the immediate aftermath of the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster chasing down a lead on a killer tied to a lightly-veiled cult based on the very real Aum Shinrikyo organization that was responsible for the sarin gas attack on a Tokyo subway in 1995. It seems the cult member is planning a new and even deadlier attack using material from the disaster site. It's a less-tasteful version of Spider-Man visiting Ground Zero in Amazing Spider-Man #36 in 2001.… (mais)
