Summary

At sixteen, Ryo Narushima was a prodigy destined for Tokyo University, poised to join society’s upper echelons. But one fateful summer, his mind fractured. Armed with nothing but a blade, he savagely slaughtered his parents, sparing only his terrified sister, who hid in horror. This gruesome event marks the beginning of our tale.

A notable shift occurred at Volume 20 when the series switched publishers, resetting chapter numbering. From Chapter 61 in Volume 26—where the story resumed after a lengthy break—Tanaka Akio took full control of both writing and artwork. Initially, Hashimoto Izou handled the script, but his involvement dwindled after Volume 4. Following negotiations, Tanaka and Hashimoto reached an agreement, allowing Shamo to continue its dark journey.
