Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Reiko the Zombie Shop (Zombie-ya Reiko) is a horror manga by Rei Mikamoto, which ran in the josei horror magazine Horror M from 1998 to 2004. It focuses on Reiko Himezono, a Necromancer for hire who will raise the dead for a price.The first volume of the series contained stories which followed a standard episodic plot formula: Reiko is hired by someone to use her powers to resurrect someone who has just died, and when Reiko does just that she steps back and watches as the personal drama between the living and deceased plays out. Reiko never lets her personal feelings get in the way of her duties as a necromancer, and always charges for her services, even to people she considers friends. She's seen enough to be quite savvy when it comes to dealing with the undead, and always warns her clients that when their loved ones come back they could be unstable. The zombies do indeed turn out to be quite Ax-Crazy, although they retain their intelligence and their memories long enough to hunt down the person responsible for their suffering.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Along the way, Reiko encounters Saki Yurikawa, a teenage serial killer who hunts after little girls to be her new "little sister", and Reiko's long missing twin sister Riruka, who is also a necromancer and plans to use her powers for world domination. Yurikawa, totally deranged and unsymapthetic, debuted in two one-shot stories, Dead Sister, which originally had nothing to do with Reiko until the last chapter of the first volume, where Reiko is called in to help the police.The second volume marks a shift from zombie horror to an action horror movie feel when Reiko and Riruka are reunited, and Riruka sets out to keep Reiko from interfering with her plans for total world conquest. While the battle between Reiko and Riruka takes up the bulk of the series, some of the stories did revisit to Reiko's career as a necromancer, and also featured numerous one-shot stories that had nothing to do with any of the main characters.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

Anyone Can Die: Anyone who isn't Reiko has very slim chances of making it out of any given story arc alive and/or intact. Even Reiko herself isn't spared...at least until she got better. | |

Saki also kills adults and teenagers, but only if they get in the way of her attempts to find a "little sister." One of Camillia's victims is a mother cradling her baby girl.

Teen Pregnancy | |
Reiko the Zombie Shop (Manga) / int_4548bae | comment |
Teen Pregnancy: An early chapter features Reiko being asked by a teacher to help him resurrect a student who committed suicide. As it turns out, the girl killed herself because the teacher got her pregnant, and a zombie-like fetus bursts from her stomach and attacks the guy. Reiko doesn't help him because he lied about why the girl died, which served as a breach of contract since he didn't give Reiko all the details when she was hired. | |

Trauma Button | |
Reiko the Zombie Shop (Manga) / int_4e9fe57d | comment |
An incredibly twisted example occurs in the fifth volume with Dr. Akiyama, the woman who looked after Midori Yurikawa once Midori awoke from her coma. After Akiyama's daughter Natsumi was killed by triggering Midori's Trauma Button, Akiyama apparently tried to kill herself. To make matters worse, it turned out Midori had the same blood type and Reiko convinced her to help the doctor to somewhat atone for Natsumi's death. Unfortunately, the whole thing was a Batman Gambit Akiyama pulled so she could brutally murder Midori as revenge for Natsumi's death. She even commits suicide right afterwards because she can't stand having Midori's "tainted blood" in her body. What makes this situation more gruesome is the doctor had previously tried to act as a Parental Substitute to Midori, but Natsumi's death drove her over the edge. | |

Disproportionate Retribution | |
Reiko the Zombie Shop (Manga) / int_50b05d30 | comment |
Disproportionate Retribution: One of the one-shot stories, The Hair Check Massacre, involves a teacher killing three girls because their hair was longer than the school dress code allows. Of course, she also blames them for an accident which left her disfigured, caused her unborn baby to be stillborn, followed by her fiance leaving her. While this may be a subversion, it might've helped if the teacher hadn't lost her temper when one of the girls made a joke about her sex life. She grabbed the girl, forced her against a bookcase, and that caused a large jar to fall off and hit the teacher on the head. Besides, she murdered the girls so she could scalp them and use their hair for wigs. | |

Reiko the Zombie Shop (Manga) / int_6d892421 | comment |
Teacher/Student Romance: A dark example happens in the first volume, when Reiko is asked by a science teacher to help him finish cloning a student he was in love with. The teacher explains the girl hung herself because he misunderstood how she felt and wouldn't leave her alone, and he'd been trying to revive her because of how guilty he felt. Well, it turns out he forgot to mention the girl killed herself because she was also pregnant (and it's very likely she got pregnant because he raped her). And since he lied to Reiko about the circumstances behind the girl's death, that was a breach of contract and Reiko leaves him at the mercy of the girl and her zombie fetus. | |

Reiko the Zombie Shop (Manga) / int_984ef9ef | comment |
"Not So Different" Remark: Reiko feels this way regarding Midori Yurikawa, Saki Yurikawa's little sister whom she put into a coma when they were younger. Specifically because both Reiko and Midori had to deal with monstrous sisters with Reiko realizing she could've ended up the same way Midori did had things gone differently. Which is what brings Reiko to tears when she unwittingly allows Midori to get killed by an insane Dr. Akiyama as revenge for the death of her daughter Natsumi, as she genuinely wanted to help Midori even though Natsumi was also her friend. | |

Unwitting Instigator of Doom | |
Reiko the Zombie Shop (Manga) / int_99ddfcec | comment |
Unwitting Instigator of Doom: Natsumi Akiyama fucked up big time when she triggered Midori Yurikawa's Trauma Button by beating her up the way Saki used to when they were little. Midori ripped her apart, and it drove her mother insane. The whole thing just got worse from there, up to Midori dying in Reiko's arms as Natsumi's mom slit her own throat after killing her. | |

Kill the Cutie | |
Reiko the Zombie Shop (Manga) / int_9c5e78d0 | comment |
Kill the Cutie: Oh god... The first major arc involved Child Killer Saki Yurikawa, and we were not spared the details of her crimes. Poor Azusa also meets this fate. Being possessed by a zombie whose summoner made it so whatever damage he receives is also inflicted on Azusa. This forces Reiko to cut down the summoner...taking Azusa with him | |

Came Back Wrong | |
Reiko the Zombie Shop (Manga) / int_b983a56b | comment |
Came Back Wrong: Most of the early stories deal with Reiko summoning up murder victims and the unjustly killed, who inevitably come back Ax-Crazy. Later on the zombies tend to be under a Zombie Shop's control and act like summoned monsters, some of which seem to retain their old personalities. This is averted personality-wise with Reiko herself, despite certain... physical issues. | |

Killed Off for Real | |
Reiko the Zombie Shop (Manga) / int_cda501da | comment |
Killed Off for Real: Happens quite often. Later volumes drive the point home by punctuating certain character's demises with "Name of character: Dead", to show that, yes, they are definitely dead. | |

Mama Bear | |
Reiko the Zombie Shop (Manga) / int_e13156e1 | comment |
Mama Bear: The woman in the very first story hired Reiko to resurrect her daughter to find out why she committed suicide. When the daughter reveals she killed herself because her father sexually abused her (and then tears him in half), the woman pays Reiko a bonus to resurrect her husband's severed head so she can exact some more Laser-Guided Karma on him. Also from the first volume is news reporter Junko Kamikui, who goes absolutely ballistic when she finds Saki crouching over her daughters severed remains. The fourth volume has a woman who takes it upon herself to murder the terrorists responsible for her daughter's death a year beforehand. An incredibly twisted example occurs in the fifth volume with Dr. Akiyama, the woman who looked after Midori Yurikawa once Midori awoke from her coma. After Akiyama's daughter Natsumi was killed by triggering Midori's Trauma Button, Akiyama apparently tried to kill herself. To make matters worse, it turned out Midori had the same blood type and Reiko convinced her to help the doctor to somewhat atone for Natsumi's death. Unfortunately, the whole thing was a Batman Gambit Akiyama pulled so she could brutally murder Midori as revenge for Natsumi's death. She even commits suicide right afterwards because she can't stand having Midori's "tainted blood" in her body. What makes this situation more gruesome is the doctor had previously tried to act as a Parental Substitute to Midori, but Natsumi's death drove her over the edge. | |

Beauty Is Never Tarnished: Averted. Women routinely get scarred, dismembered and slaughtered, not to mention inevitably displaying rotting flesh when their corpses are brought back to life. Played straight with Reiko and her sister, Rurika. Despite them getting beheaded and taking a bullet to the skull, respectively. | |
