CROSSING MIDNIGHT: VOLUME 1 PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Mike Carey | 128 pages | 27 Jun 2007 | DC Comics | 9781401213411 | English | United States WANGAN MIDNIGHT MAXIMUM TUNE 4 Toshi follows Aratsu into his palace and says that she will join him provided he restores her mother to life. In her bedroom, Kai's mother's body reforms itself but she remains unconscious. Kai's mother is under observation at a local hospital, where she remains unconscious and covered with scars from Aratsu's swords. Kai's grieving is interrupted by a gang of evil imps, which start to consume pieces of his mother's memory. They run when Kai attacks them as they fear his touch, but soon find weapons in a part of the hospital that is closed for renovation. He is saved by Nidoru, goddess of needles, who dispatches them with ease. She reveals that she is aware of the debt owed by Kai's father to Aratsu. She also explains that the imps were attracted to his mother's soul, which was also cut apart by Aratsu's swords — shredded souls being easier to consume. She also explains that she and her master were the only 'shepherds of point' not to bow to Aratsu. As punishment, he killed her master. She says that if Kai agrees to help her take Aratsu down, she will sew his mother's soul back together and try to save his father, who is destined to die in a yakuza shoot-out that day. He agrees and his mother wakes up too late to stop him from walking off with Nidoru. In his mansion, Aratsu slices through Toshi with a special sword, cutting away both her past and future, leaving her existing in an eternal 'now'. He says that if she displeases him, he will allow that time to elapse and she will vanish. He also gives her a new name, Hasharito or 'little insect', and tells her never to think of her old name. Despairingly, she agrees. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Crossing Midnight Cover to Crossing Midnight 1. Art by J. Dark fantasy. This section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it.

At the FEAH university for heroes, Chance, Xiong Mao, and Ombre start a course of study that will make them superheroes with the power to save the world and everything around it. Or at least that's what they hope! Just imagine: a university where you can learn to manage your image and obtain a superhero license! When he arrives in a godforsaken Baltimore district where his father has just taken over a grocery store, Elliott, a shy and hard-working student, wonders if he will be able to make new friends… But unexpectedly enough, he adapts quickly to his new environment, and forms a strong friendship with Sixteen and his gang of corner boys. Friedman, a grocer So when they get the chance to rob a warlord's treasure, the three men don't hesitate to pursue it. But as Since the confectionery closed, everything's fallen apart: Mapple's now a ghost town, whereas the former confectionery has become a sanitarium for the mentally ill, or rather… a psychopaths' In Japan, the folktales feature Youkai loosely translated as demons and Kami loosely translated a sprits and Crossing Midnight imagines what might happen if they really existed. I really enjoy how matter-of-factly all of it is treated. The people who know the spirits are there know it and it's not scary or horrible, it's just a fact. The ones who don't know never will. The other thing I really enjoy about this series is that the main characters are twins but they're normal siblings, too. I am a twin and I HATE it when you get twin characters who are only whole when together or have mystical twin-tastic powers. They are, naturally, concerned about each other but they're concerned like any siblings would be. It feels much more realistic that way and doesn't detract from the normalcy of the spirit world the way magical twin powers would for me, at least. Enjoyable so far.

The Kami are spirits of the natural world, like earthquakes, and of everyday objects — for example a bowl or a knife. In return for the blessing the parents pledge to repay the Kami with their worship. One day when the twins are around 10 years old, the sister falls out of a tree onto a spiked metal fence. Inst Twins, a boy and a girl, are born on either side of midnight — only a few minutes apart. Instead of impaling her, the spikes bend and she realizes she is impervious to being cut by sharp metal objects — no knife can harm her. When the twins are in highschool, the Kami returns to collect the debt owed to him, and he wants the sister as payment. He will ask only three times — and if she says no, there will be consequences. I can't wait for the next installment of this story! The illustrations are amazing if a little gorey. I like the way the plot includes Japanese folklore in a modern setting. The Afterword in this edition explains how the Kami fit into the Japanese folkloric tradition. Nov 16, Jen rated it it was amazing Shelves: religion-mythology-occult , comics , world-culture. My husband first picked up the Crossing Midnight series because we both like Mike Carey a lot. Lucifer was awesome, and David loves the Hellblazer stuff he wrote. This is a series centering on Japanese mythology involving kami and yokai, types of spirits from the spirit world. Toshi and Kai are twins, one born just before midnight and one just after. They both have remarkable abilities that they don't notice until they're about 14 and just starting high school, but they're not the same abilities My husband first picked up the Crossing Midnight series because we both like Mike Carey a lot.
