ドラゴンヘッド

Information

Description

Blurb:
Returning home after a class trip, Teru Aoki takes the most frightening ride of his life aboard the shinkansen. Inside a mountain tunnel, the train runs off the tracks, killing nearly everyone aboard. In his horror at seeing so many of his classmates and teachers dead before his eyes, Teru finds one of his classmates-Ako Seto-tugging on his leg, despite her being barely conscious. Nobuo Takahashi, another classmate, has also survived the disaster but has emerged, somewhat deranged, as a "Master of the Darkness." When Ako finally regains her strength, Teru and Ako attempt to travel home but instead must dodge Nobuo and his spear. Eventually, Teru and Ako begin their long and lonely journey home - and their quest to figure out exactly what happened that afternoon in the mountain pass.
Klappentext:
DRAGON HEAD ist eine atmosphärisch düstere Serie, die mit einem Eisenbahnunglück beginnt. In diesem klaustrophobischen Horrortrip sind drei Kinder die Haptdarsteller und die Bühne für die Handlung ist ein dunkler, halbzerstörter Tunnel, aus dem es keinen Ausweg zu geben scheint.

Aber kehren wir zum Anfang zurück... Die Geschichte beginnt mit einem normalen Schulausflug, bis der Zug verunglückt, in dem sich eine Schulklasse befindet. Völlig zerstört und entgleist unter dem zum Teil eingestürzten Tunnel, ist der Zug mit seinen leblosen Reisenden zu einem dunklen und stillen Grab geworden.

Drei Kinder haben jedoch überlebt und suchen nun nach einem Ausweg und einer Erklärung für dieses Unglück. Da sie nichts dergleichen finden können, vermuten sie die Ursache in einem Erdbeben in Tokio oder sogar ganz Japans. Wie groß ist die Wahrscheinlichkeit, Hilfe von außen herbeizurufen? Ihre Furcht steigert sich zur Verzweiflung und die gemeinsten Instinkte beherrschen ihren Körper und Geist.
Texto de presentación:
Un dramático accidente en un tren japonés abrirá a los supervivientes las puertas de un nuevo e infernal mundo subterráneo en ruinas. Tendrán que aprender a sobrevivir en un universo claustrofóbico del que no saben si van a poder salir... Impactante manga que supuso un inesperado éxito tanto en su país de origen como en nuestro país. Una obra impecable que hace que el lector sienta angustia y miedo al ver las tribulaciones por las que tienen que pasar los protagonistas. Terror en estado puro.
Testo della bandella:
Teru Aoki è comodamente seduto su un treno ad alta velocità. Sta tornando a casa da una gita organizzata dalla sua scuola, e tutto sembra un sogno perfetto. Poi, all’improvviso, la tragedia. Si risveglia solo, al buio, senza sapere cosa è successo e perché. È l’inizio della sua nuova vita, e dell’incubo che presto questa diventerà!
