A Strange and Mystifying Story (Japanese: この世異聞, Hepburn: Kono Yo Ibun) is a Japanese manga written and illustrated by Tsuta Suzuki. The manga was published by Libre Publishing. It is licensed in North America by Digital Manga Publishing, which released the first volume through its imprint, Juné, on May 27, 2008,[1] the second volume following on August 19, 2009.[2] It is about a man who is sick with a disease cursed to affect all of his bloodline who summons a therianthrope, his family's guardian, to heal him. Holly Ellingwood of ActiveAnime praised the 'quite striking' design of the therianthrope,[3] and enjoyed his background story in the second volume.[4] Michelle Smith found the background story and character development well-done, and felt for the main characters struggling with his condition.[5] The publisher, Juné Manga, recommends the story to readers who enjoy 'yaoi' (male/male romance) stories filled with drama and tragedy, with the story involving spirits and the supernatural.[6]
