I Want to Die Alone

Morning KC I Want to Die Alone Vol. 3 is an official Japanese paper manga volume by Kaoru Curry Zawa, Misaki Donnelly, published by Kodansha under the Morning KC label.

Winner of the Excellence Award in the Manga Division at the 24th Japan Media Arts Festival, for fiscal 2020! Her aunt, who was supposed to be enjoying a carefree retirement, unexpectedly dies alone. The life of Narumi Yamaguchi, a single, 35-year-old museum curator, takes a sharp turn from searching for a husband to planning for the end of her life. To die better, she must live better. Aiming to be the ultimate, undisputed champion, she races headlong toward Yomi, the land of the dead. After nearly falling into the clutches of a former classmate and self-styled life planner, Narumi painfully confronts the vulnerabilities of being a woman and growing older. Visiting her aunt's grave, she throws herself into unavoidable questions: how to deal with Buddhist temples, what to do about a grave, and much more. Narumi wants to press ahead with her own end-of-life planning, but her parents' preparations stand in the way. Her father cannot let go of the pride of his working years. Her mother is plotting a personal revolution through hip-hop. With help from her younger colleague Nasuda, who knows more and more about end-of-life matters, Narumi desperately searches for the best possible retirement for her parents. The number-one manga that will not let you forget reality, but forces you to face it! Life is not so frightening if we live it together! The series, which began in Kodansha's Monthly Morning Two, has moved to Kodansha's Comic DAYS and updates on the first and third Sundays of each month. Author interviews and related articles appeared in Kodansha's FRIDAY Digital and FRaU, Asahi Shimbun's telling., Fusosha's SPA!
