Grand Guignol Orchestra

人形宮廷楽団

Guignol Kyuutei Gakudan

In medieval Europe, a mysterious plague transforms people into horrifying, flesh-eating dolls known as Guignols, throwing the land into chaos. With no cure available, survivors must burn any infected to prevent the outbreak from spreading. Against this grim backdrop, the wandering musical troupe called the Grand Orchestra continues its travels. Its members include the skilled musician Lucille, the enthusiastic gun lover Kohaku, and the quiet driver Gwindel, who has a particular fondness for hedgehogs. The trio receives an invitation from Lord Heliodor to perform in the town of Touissant, but they encounter local distrust because they do not join the fight against the Guignols. This suspicion is especially strong with Heliodor's disabled son, Elestial, who despises music and openly scorns the musicians. Despite the hostility, the group proceeds with their performance while uncovering the town's hidden secrets and the reasons behind Elestial's animosity, as his destiny becomes increasingly intertwined with their own journey. This volume also includes the one-shot Camelot Garden.
