Shikiyama is looking to make some easy money when he finds an ad for a university experiment: "$6,000 for a one-week stay." Not even knowing what the work entails, he finds it rather suspicious, but the temptation of the paycheck is too much to resist, and the young, handsome man signs up. On the day of the experiment, he learns the particulars-the group is divided into prisoners and guards in a "mock prison." Shikiyama finds himself playing the role of a prisoner, and, though he thought he could get away with slacking, he ends up a target for the guards. Soon, he is stuck living the life of a real prisoner! Can Shikiyama handle the many indignities thrust upon him!? And what will be the result of the week-long experiment!?
Leo is a Mafia god. Everyone is scared of him, even his siblings—everyone except for Jay. Jay is an FBI agent, the best one in the field. He goes undercover to arrest Leo, but will his feelings ruin the mission?
One year after the failure of his first manga, Awawa World, Toriyama once again tried his hand at manga creation for the Monthly Young Jump award and crafted Mysterious Rain Jack, a one-shot mystery comedy that features an unnamed detective and his bumbling inspector ally who try to crack the case of a string of mysterious thefts that revolve around various items such as sweets and Cola. The story notably features character designs and scenarios that would later find their way into his most popular work, Dr. Slump. In particular, the lead detective's design would eventually be reused for Kurikinton Soramame and there's an appearance by an ogre who would later become Thunder Ogre Goronbo. The work was unfortunately rejected which was in large part due to the usage of several designs lifted straight from the space opera film Star Wars. Despite this however, Kazuhiko Torishima, who would later become Toriyama's editor, contacted him with words of encouragement that kept him going until he eventually found success. Like Awawa World, this manga would be republished in two parts in the "Bird Land Press" fanclub newsletter and would have its master materials brought out for display during a roaming art exhibition in the 1990s that was dedicated entirely to Toriyama's work. Unfortunately it along with Awawa World had its master materials stolen and when coupled with the use of copyrighted designs? This means an official rerelease is highly unlikely.
'Silas', the director of a security company cooperating with the police, approaches 'Arthur', a new detective who is in trouble during an investigation. Instead of helping Arthur, Silas asks for his body! Contrary to his kind appearance, Silas shakes Arthur insanely.
