Kaoru Mori "Ghost marriage"
Let's be together in the afterlife with me.
Mori Kaoru's ball-jointed doll filled with mysterious beauty and sad Eros.
Photographer Yukio Yoshinari has photographed the enchanting limbs, a collection of photographs filled with the charm of darkness!
◎Comic artist Hiroaki Samura has contributed a novel and a picture based on Kaoru Mori's dolls!
This is the long-awaited collection of works by Mori Kaoru, who has many fans with dolls that make you feel the ephemeral eros, following "The Virgins of the Sleepless Forest"!
(Large size B5 size!)

Were the eyes of dolls moistened with heat like this?
I wonder if the doll's lips were glossy like this, as if they had just been engaged in an affair.
--Hiroaki Samura (manga artist)
