Manga Monday: Out Next Week--Drug & Drop Vol. 2

04/27/2015 4:53pm

The story that begins with the Legal Drug omnibus and returned in its sequel, Drug & Drop, continues next week with the release of Drug & Drop vol. 2—CLAMP’s tale of two attractive, mysterious young men, trying to uncover the violent secrets of their past under the shelter of their day job at Shimokitazawa’s Green Drugstore.

CLAMP are somewhat unusual among manga creators in that they create universes, and just as vol. 1 featured a crossover with their manga xxxHolic, in vol. 2 we meet a character from CLAMP’s Wish. It’s a lighthearted encounter, but with the shadow of separation behind it that all too soon threatens Kazahaya, as he returns to the store to find that Rikuo has suffered severely in his quest to find out the truth about his vanished older sister. 

Kazahaya, who can seem like the flighty one, reveals that he knows just how easy it is for people to die—and his talk with the wounded Rikuo opens up for the first time the bizarre life he and his own sister, Kei, had in the remote village in which they were raised, attended by a townsfolk that both feared and coveted their powers. Delve into the bloodstained past and present of Drug & Drop with vol. 2!
