Synopsis
Seiji survives a deadly bus crash and must journey into the Greek underworld to save his friend and soul.
Ever since the day Seiji climbed down a creepy dark well as a kid to retrieve a wayward ball and picked up an odd-looking pomegranate, he's had to dodge an unending stream of near-fatal "accidents" that push everyone around him away—except for his best friend Haru. But all that changes when their high school bus crashes, killing everybody on board but Seiji. Suddenly, rumors from his childhood about that fateful well reaching into the depths of the underworld take on a whole new light, and Seiji is launched into an epic adventure to save his friend—and his own soul. The journey into the underworld of Greek legend as never seen before begins in this darkly thrilling action-adventure! (Source: Kodansha USA)
