Cagaster

In this darkly imaginative manga series published by Tokyopop (de), the world has been ravaged by the "Cagaster" disease, which transforms humans into giant, monstrous insects. The story follows a young exterminator named Kidow as he navigates this perilous post-apocalyptic landscape, struggling to protect the fragile remnants of humanity. Launched in 2016 and running for six issues, Cagaster is a standout work from creator Kachou Hashimoto, blending visceral horror with a poignant survival narrative that has earned a cult following for its unique premise and stark, evocative art.
