It's weird-enough work, just trying every day to turn corpses into cash when they're connected to mysterious UFO crashes, modern-day mummies, and stiffs turned to soap. But the secrets of the Kurosagi crew's past continue to haunt them as well as they meet the exorcist Reiji Akira from Mail, who photographs the familiar spirit haunting Karatsu, and a flashback story takes us to early twentieth-century Japan to meet the ancestors (?) of our cast.

Some manga offer you stories about zombies . . . others, robots . . . others, otaku-but only The Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service would offer you a story about a zombie-robot otaku! And that's just the first of ten cases the Kurosagi gang encounter in Book Three, as strange-but-true rituals and incidents from Japan's past reemerge as tales of bizarre modern horror! Marriages with the dead . . . human air-defense radar . . . the souls of babies in the bodies of yakuza! And even as a cabal of phantoms seeks to imprison Karatsu's familiar spirit Yaichi, the Delivery Service face perhaps their greatest challenge yet . . . convincing somebody else to join their club so they don't lose their meeting space on campus!

Book five has the Kurosagi gang running into ever more bizarre incidents of modern horror, from mind-control mouse hats, to taxpayer-supported torture museums, to the most feared calamity of all . . . jury duty! Meanwhile, it seems a gang of corpse-clearing impostors is out to take away their meager business-and in America, someone's made a cartoon series based off them . . . ?!
Plus, three previously unpublished stories: a client whose psychological syndrome makes her believe she's dead, the mad robot scientist trio invents a zombie biker gang, and fugitives from a deadly cult hide out in the radioactive ruins of Fukushima!
