Description:

Guardians of Death Tsuzuki and Hisoka are sent to discover why dying passengers who travel on the liner Princess Camellia suddenly grow stronger. Their investigation turns into an Agatha Christie-style murder mystery as people aboard the ship turn up dead. The only clues are the Tarot cards found with the bodies, which are addressed to the daughter of the ship's owner, "Princess Tsubaki" (Camellia in Japanese). These dark crimes lead to the icy Dr. Muraki--who killed Hisoka and nurtures an unrequited passage for Tsuzuki. Muraki has been performing illegal organ transplants (procedures that run counter to traditional Japanese beliefs) and experimenting with human cloning. These revelations set the stage for the upcoming conclusion of the series. The "Fun Facts Video" points out puns, offers explanations of symbols, and provides a lot of irrelevant information. (Rated 13 and older: brief nudity, violence, alcohol use, suggested homosexuality) --Charles Solomon
