About the Manga
Ron Kamonohashi: Deranged Detective is a captivating mystery manga written and illustrated by Akira Amano, serialized on Shueisha's Shonen Jump+. The series features Ron Kamonohashi, a former star student at the elite BLUE Detective Academy who was revoked of his detective license due to a bizarre, unconscious fatal habit during case resolutions.
Ron lives in reclusive isolation until he meets Totomaru 'Toto' Isshiki, an earnest but underperforming police investigator seeking help with unsolved murder mysteries. Recognizing that Toto's pure character can restrain his dangerous subconscious impulses, Ron agrees to solve complex crimes behind the scenes while letting Toto take public credit.
