The latest issue of Shogakukan's Weekly Shonen Sunday has confirmed that Yellow Tanabe's fantasy manga Kai-hen Wizards (Kaihen no Mahōtsukai) is nearing its conclusion. The magazine announced that the series will publish its final chapter in the upcoming 46th issue, scheduled for release on October 14. This concluding installment is slated to be an expanded 26-page chapter.
While the announcement marks the end of the current run, it remains unconfirmed whether this represents the definitive conclusion of the entire story or the end of a specific narrative arc. The series, which follows a young boy living in exile to protect the world from his volatile magical abilities, has been available to English readers via Viz Media's simultaneous digital publication platform.
This finale brings a close to a series that has seen a somewhat turbulent production schedule, including a hiatus that began in February 2026 before the story resumed in late July. Tanabe, best known for the long-running supernatural series Kekkaishi and the later title Birdmen, has maintained a consistent presence in Weekly Shonen Sunday for over two decades. With the series wrapping up, it remains to be seen if the collected volumes will see a final release date announcement shortly after the magazine's conclusion.
