File-Shiki vol1

The chapters of the manga series Shiki were drawn and written by Ryu Fujisaki and serialized by Shueisha in Jump Square. The story is based off of the novels of the same name. It is about a small village named Sotoba, which is plagued by bizarre deaths caused by what seemed to be an epidemic. However, when Toshio Ozaki, the hospital dean, performs his own investigations, he discovers vampires, known as "shiki" ("corpse demon" in English) living in their midst. An English adaptation of the manga series has yet to be announced.

The first chapter was released in December 2007, and it was serialized in Jump Square until June 2011. An anime adaptation of the manga was announced in December 2009. The first episode aired on Fuji TV on July 8, 2010.
