Fruit of the Underworld 1

Seiji just wants an ordinary high school life, but a decade of mysterious accidents has chased him. A cryptic messenger points to clues in his past, prompting him to unearth a strange pomegranate found at the bottom of a well that supposedly leads to the underworld. His attempt to discard it only reveals that the fruit wasn't the only thing he brought back—an unholy chain of events is unleashed, threatening not only his world but the next. This first volume of Fruit of the Underworld, written by Aya Kanno, blends dark fantasy, mythic danger, and sharp character work as Seiji confronts a destiny he did not choose. In true Kanno fashion, it toys with fate, identity, and power, setting the stage for a thrilling series ride that reimagines supernatural stakes in a modern setting.
