Heaven's Prison (天獄 Tengoku?) is a manga series by Hiroyuki Utatane. The title is a pun: tengoku is normally spelled 天国 and means "Heaven" (lit. heaven country), but the title instead replaces "country" kanji (国) with the "prison" kanji (獄) from jigoku (地獄), the word for Hell (lit. earth prison).
Heaven's Prison tells the story of Touku, a normal school girl that one day witnessed a car accident. There she saw a beautiful and young girl dressed like a maid. Touku thought that she was a cosplayer, but the things changed when the maid started to collect the accident's victims' blood.
The Japanese limited edition of the first volume came with a Saki figure with 23-points of articulation.
