Readers can now access the latest project from the duo behind Noragami: Stray God via the K MANGA platform. The English-language release is scheduled for October 5, arriving just ahead of the series' Japanese debut in the November issue of Kodansha's Monthly Shonen Magazine on October 6.
The narrative centers on Kasumi Kuromine, a junior high student living in the countryside whose life takes a dramatic turn following a fall down a mountainside during a school field trip. This marks the first major new project for Adachitoka following the conclusion of their long-running hit Noragami, which wrapped up its 27-volume run in early 2024.
While Noragami remains a staple of the supernatural genre with its 2014 and 2015 anime adaptations by studio BONES, this new series shifts focus to a fresh premise. With the industry's current emphasis on digital accessibility, the rapid availability of this title on K MANGA aligns international readers with the Japanese publication schedule. It remains to be seen how the duo's signature blend of folklore and character-driven drama will translate into this new setting.
