    Against a backdrop of photorealistic landscapes, Kitaro and his otherworldly cartoon friends plunge into the depths of the Pacific Ocean and forge the oft-unseen wilds of Japan's countryside.

    The twelve stories in this special collection include more works published in the golden age of GeGeGe no Kitaro between 1967 and 1969.
