comment |
Hallucinations From The Womb is a single-volume collection of short stories by Mohiro Kitoh, better known as the author of Bokurano and Shadow Star. The stories all take place in Shell City, a futuristic yet decaying city that constantly builds itself upwards, leaving the ruined lower portions buried underground. This decay is mirrored in the minds of its citizens, and the various stories illustrate the degree to which they have become corrupted. Each of the stories is told in the form of a police procedural, with two police officers being the only characters who appear in all of the stories. It contains some very interesting insights on the human condition but, as with Shadow Star, it is borderline Not Safe for Work. |

People Zoo: The insane video game developer's life-size version of his game might as well be this, since the people inside are in glass enclosures and aren't allowed to leave. |

Dystopia: Shell City itself. From what we see, it has a police registry where everything about its citizens is kept on record, many books are banned, homelessness runs rampant, and it has really shoddy architecture. |

Bio Punk: Human cloning is a lucrative business in Shell City. Some clones, known as Shoryoshi, are bred for use as "living libraries" due to their enhanced memories. |

The Bluebeard: In the first story, a man clones his wife multiple times (once for every year she's lived) and preserves the clones in tanks of liquid. He's arrested once the newest clone catches on to this. |
