Great Story! Glad we could finally get this done. Took us a lot of time to get 100+ pages done but we did it!
Hope you enjoyed one of the early manga by Satoshi Kon. Rip the legend.


As i mentioned in the Scanlator note, this is a movie by the same name.
World Apartment Horror is a 1991 horror comedy film directed by Katsuhiro Otomo (Akira Author & Director) , with a screenplay by Otomo and Keiko Nobumoto (Cowboy Bebop) from a story by Satoshi Kon (Paprika, Perfect Blue)
Go watch this movie... It's simply great. I was watching this movie while i was QCing the manga. It was a great and fun watch. Its both funny and serious at the same time. And all the many characters together just makes this story just beautiful. The movie takes a slight different approach with presenting the story and with more characters but still a completely different experience to watch. Watch it now!
Someone uploaded a HQ English hardsubbed version of the movie on youtube. https://youtu.be/vXWVkVHj0HU
Or you know where you find it... sail the high seas.


We plan to do more of these kind of manga in future and we are looking for some Redrawers, JP Translators

Thank you for translating this and finally completing this collection of wonderful stories!!
I've only recently begun looking into Satoshi Kon's manga but I'm sure many other people are excited to finally have this chapter completed.

It's also really odd to see a manga adaptation of a movie. I haven't actually heard of any others.

To think that Sim Sala Bim actually ended working!

Thanks a lot guys for finally completing this manga!

OMG! I remember when I started buying manga when I was a kid and saw this manga on the shelf. It felt so mature and weird back then but it always stuck on me.

Now, 30 years later I’ve been able to finally read it all... thank you!!!

Btw, nice reference to The Exorcist on page 69, for those who missed it 🙂
