Something about a demonic/prophetic newspaper

Prophetic Newspaper

Best Answer Akumetsu, 12 June 2014 - 12:24 PM

I googled evil newspaper and this was one of the results: http://vatoto.com/comic/_/comics/kigata-ga-kita-kyoufu-shinbun-yori-r1335.

Seems to be it?

 

Edit. Lol - You posted a comment on it, so pretty sure it's this one.

I stumbled across this by chance... but man this is awesome! How does one come up with such a great and unique concept?!

A looong while ago I read a manga about some guy who wakes up every morning with an evil newspaper in his face that prophesizes bad events like the death(s) of people by accident, murder or paranormal stuff and he has to prevent it from happening, otherwise every time a prophecy comes true, he looses a bit of his life span.

The newspaper could transform into a fiendish looking female demon (retaining the newspapery surface as the skin) and I think in the first chapter he tries to save a group of delinquents from a haunted bus, the latest chapter I read was about a creepy looking "friend" of his that worked as an actor (playing villain-roles). The protagonist tries to prevent him from committing murder(s) to spoil the prophecy, but by the time he arrived, there were already plenty of hidden corpses hidden all over the place and the protagonist remembered that the prophecy only stated that the police would find crap-loads of corpses said day...

 

I don't remember too much about the chapters in-between, since it was like 2 years ago or so that I read it and never heard of it again. I was curious to see what had happened to it, but couldn't find it.

I could have sworn it had something with newspaper in its name and a lot of Ks... but I just can't find it again. The first time I found it (on mangareader), it was coincidentally by a failed googling attempt. I think.

 

Thanks in advance for anyone knowing the name or having useful clues... I really have a hard time remembering the right name...
