A.I.C.O. Incarnation

Aico Tachibana is recovering from both a car accident that took her father and shattered her body, then a from a world-shaking biological disaster that engulfed her mother and brother. Her rehabilitation is like getting used to a brand-new body, but as a young transfer student shows her, that is no simile. Her body is not her own. Now she must escape shadowy forces who want to kidnap her and join a desperate mission into an organic-matter-infested valley to find the fate of her family, the truth of herself, and quite possibly, save the world. This is Hiroaki Michiaki’s comic adaptation of the brand-new anime by the makers of Wolf’s Rain and Space Dandy.

Desperately wanting to be reunited with the surviving members of her family, and needing to unlock the secrets hidden within her own body, AICO Tachibana and Yuya Kanzaki guarded by only a small contingent of divers, break through into the dangers of the restricted area. But fear chases AICO and her allies in the form of violent man-made lifeforms called Matter! Other potential obstacles include the machinations and motivations of the government and other institutions, all leading to twists no one can predict. The only question is, can AICO and her group survive it?

Final volume! In Japan, in the near-future world of 2035, research on "artificial organisms" have created a disastrous accident called The Burst.
