It is published by Square Enix and premiered in the Monthly Shōnen Gangan on April 12, 2005. As of March 2014, twenty-one volumes have been released in Japan. After being brutally murdered along with her family, Makina Hoshimura turns into a Shikabane Hime, a living corpse contracted to the Kōgon Sect, in order to exert revenge against the Shichisei who were responsible for her death. Her task is to kill 108 corpses to gain entrance into heaven while being assisted by Keisei Tagami, her Contracted Monk.

In his younger days, he was one of the top aces in the Kōgon Sect, and a close friend to Keisei and Sadaharo. He was proud and strong in his faith, until he was forced to kill his Shikabane Hime, who was his fiancée when she was alive. Afterwards, he went into exile for 5 years. No news about him was heard until a series of recent events involving the resurrection of many Shikabane cases. He allies with the Shichisei in order to bring down the Kōgon Sect. Read More
