Since my Me & the Devil Blues thread (hint, hint) died a quick and painless death and there was a Homunculus thread in the old forum, I figured to try again (I can't have that different taste of comics). Homunculus is a comic by the guy who made Koroshiya Ichi (Ichi the Killer) and it's about drilling a hole into a skull and consequence of it. Filled with fantastic but somewhat screwed up cast and psychological observations of human mind. It's one my current favourites series and thus far I like it better than Ichi.

Few sample pages: Car Deal 1 Deal 2 What ?

I just read the fifth volume and I don't mind if a character masturbates but eating your own sperm is nastiest thing I've seen in a while. I ain't eating yogurt for a while that's for sure -_-. I loved the volume though and I can't but just wonder where Yamamoto's going with it.

[jewbagel]

Hah wow, I've been following this manga but haven't read volume 5 yet. Sounds kind of nasty. But the manga is really intriguing, and the effect of trepanation on the character is bizarre.

Awesome artwork too, it's what caught my attention when I read the first chapter.

[stephen]

As soon as he started sniffing his stuff, I knew where that was heading.

[Sakonosolo]

Pretty old thread, but I decided to bump it because it's really good and more people need to read it. I have no clue what the release schedule is, if any, but the tenth volume was put up on Mangafox just recently.

Plus, every time I make a thread it seems Green vs Red manages to find a thread for it that I couldn't find .

[Refii]

Well, I accidentally clicked your sig Kairouseki and now I hate you. I'm officially addicted to this mind-rape psychological manga. Read up to volume 10, and then I checked mangahelpers for volume 11, where SUPPOSEDLY, a raw exists, but I can't find it anywhere.

I'm going crazy just wondering wtf is going to happen next, and I can't find an unlocked volume 11 download, raw or otherwise.

This manga is great, it got a little scary there with the doc, but it seems like the series is going to continue strong for a while.
I just hope the author actually knows how to end it, because he can drag the story on forever; stupid Bourne series.

[Sakonosolo]

You're welcome .

[They call me D]

Before they got shut down Raw Paradise/RSF toward the end had someone who would upload individual chapters. As far as I can remember it got up to the 130th chapter or so. They had raw versions of all of the 11th volume. I don't know if any chapters from the 12th ever got uploaded though.

[fdsfgfs]

Thanks for bringing this to my attention, I'm really digging this manga.

[Yoska]

Ha. I had forgotten this series altogether. I need to start reading it again. So the series hasn't ended yet? And there has been around 5 more volumes in… 5 years?

[Sakonosolo]

Yeah, volume 10 just got uploaded a little bit ago, but Japan is up to volume 12 and it's still going.

[Refii]

I want updates….. where are 11 & 12?

[They call me D]

Exactly, I could also do with those two volumes. I also don't have any translations for the end of vol 10, nor any chapters in vol's 11 & 12.

[agony]

wow, used to read this manga. Time to catch up on the volumes I missed!

[Bucephalus]

This is a good manga.
Right now I'm reading the chapter with blood and cum eating… what the fuck

[Sakonosolo]

@They:

Are you reading on Mangafox? I think volume 10 only has 3 chapters.
@Bucephalus:

This is a good manga.
Right now I'm reading the chapter with blood and cum eating… what the fuck

What the fuck indeed.

[Refii]

@Bucephalus:

This is a good manga.
Right now I'm reading the chapter with blood and cum eating… what the fuck

Well when you put it like that..

[eerie]

Omfg I love this. I'm hooked.

[Bucephalus]

Already reading volume 8.

I love the characters in this.

My only real gripe is that it's a bit slow. All that characterization prevents anything from actually happening.

[Narutossss]

ok I'm on volume 3 and that sand chick is scaring the fuck out of me.

[LaCaSiNa]

Psychological mindfuck seinen manga? I'm always down for one of those!

I'm not even done wih the first volume yet and I already like it.

[fdsfgfs]

Sigh, just finished up with volume 10- looks like I'm on the waiting wagon with the rest of y'all.

[Narutossss]

on volume 5 and this shit is just down right fucked up!!!!!!! Blood and cum… the fuck!?

[Refii]

I am ecstatic that you bunch of fools fell in the same trap I did, go watch Breaking Bad while you wait, and tomorrow well figure out how to blackmail Aohige or Greg to scan the raws for us.

[Narutossss]

@Refii:

I like the way you think.

[They call me D]

@Kairouseki:

Are you reading on Mangafox? I think volume 10 only has 3 chapters.

No, I followed the series back when Raw Paradise was up and running. Periodically they would release new chapters. I got all the way up to chapter 129 I think, maybe even 130.

I have a 210 page Volume 10 scanlation though, check out the scan group Illuminati.

EDIT: Last chapter I have is 128. I have 126-128 though. If yall need me to upload those 3 raws just holla. But no point reading them if you aint caught up.

EDIT again: The 10th volume is actually up for online viewing. Manga fox only has the first 3 chapters but http://view.thespectrum.net/series/homunculus-chapter-106.html?ch=Volume+10&page=1
has the entire 10th volume.

[fdsfgfs]

That site doesn't seem to have any more than mangafox did. Am I doing something wrong or did MF just update since your post, perhaps?

[Sakonosolo]

Yeah, Mangafox has the same that SN does. And I'm glad that I renewed some interest in this manga, it really deserves it.

[Refii]

Chapter 106: a trail of foot fetish.

I worry about how they may end this psychological mindfuck, he had no eccentricities prior to his current state, and they need to delve some more into the car relationship.

So much to explain, but instead they continue with the problems… I hope it's not a copout with the surgery simply having made him insane.

[They call me D]

! The latest arc deals with him trying to remember about himself before his plastic surgery. One day he runs into some girl from his past who he also sees images around. Turns out they hooked up and she wound up playing him, not the other way around, lol.

Although, that was just one untranslated chapter from wayyyyy back. It's moved on 2 volumes since then.

[Sakonosolo]

Thanks for telling everyone what happens next .

[fdsfgfs]

For serious. Tags pls.

[Refii]

That was really uncalled for, please tag it, and I hope you're wrong in the way you simplified the explanation. Otherwise this is heading south in terms of who the main character actually is.

[puffin]

I just read the first chapter because of Kairouseki, and I'm hooked. Off to read the second chapter.

[Bucephalus]

That's hardly really a spoiler. HE MEETS UP WITH A GIRL FROM HIS PAST OMG

I wouldn't mind if the rest of this series was spoiled to me; it's about the characterization, not the structural plot.

[They call me D]

Great news is that after waiting patiently for nearly a year the entire 11th volume has been scanlated. We are now just 2 full volumes behind.

[Sakonosolo]

Awesome. Off to read.

[Don Quichotte De Flamingo]

Read the first two volumnes…(after having it a long time on my lists)
So far not bad..hope i can catch up this week to the last translated chapter.

[FYN]

Any news on Volume 12 being translated?
I just finished 11 and really need to continue reading

[THE SEA]

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/0003-89-11/hideo-yamamoto-ends-homunculus-horror-manga-next-week

[Refii]

It's going to be a while before we get all 15 volumes translated, so don't hold your breath. Earliest I would imagine it is completed is probably September of 2011

[Don Quichotte De Flamingo]

Volumne 12 & 13 are released.
Check it out.

[lelandlancaster]

Awesome thanks! I was just thinking about how much I wanted to read more of this, the other day.

[projectelf]

I don't think that analysis is correct that she just simply changes her face since the younger girl did the same too. It would be the same again.

[Refii]

Ugh I'm catching up the chapters not done yet, but this is turning super dark.. freaking out.

This manga is not to be read under the influence, it is severely psychotic and reminds me of psychotic ex's I've had… holy crap.

[Wagomu]

Hell fucking yes! Now I have something to do tonight.

[eerie]

@Refii:

Ugh I'm catching up the chapters not done yet, but this is turning super dark.. freaking out.

You're gonna pee yourself It's so good

[Refii]

Yea I just finished up… shit

[Wagomu]

Fuck, I loved every moment of that.

! The entire self-trepanation… Oh man, that entire scene. That's everything I love to see from this series.

[Refii]

You suck, I couldn't sit through an entire sitting of that scene, had to take a break have a shot and go back to it.

[Nia]

@Wagomu:

Fuck, I loved every moment of that.

! The entire self-trepanation… Oh man, that entire scene. That's everything I love to see from this series.

I know!

Damn, now I feel like rereading the whole thing starting at chapter 1.
