After The Attack of the Giants, The Legend of Arslan, a series by Hiromu Arakawa, the historical author of Fullmetal Alchemist, became the face of Bessatsu Shonen Magazine. However, the mangaka is not satisfied and on Shonen Gangan is ready to start a new series. Yomi no Tsugai.
Little is known of this new work from the author who had moved away from Square Enix for years to have Silver Spoon in Shogakukan’s home magazine and then The Legend of Arslan for Kodansha. Now go back to the basics, on the same magazine that made Fullmetal Alchemist. The new series is called Yomi no Tsugai and already seems to refer to an oriental culture and a relationship with death.
Yomi no Tsugai makes her debut with a cover by Shonen Ganganthat just leaked from the magazine’s website, which you can check out in the post below. In the foreground stands the blonde protagonist in full Arakawa style, while behind him a replica of the two masks he wears in his hands in the trailer is based on Japanese inspiration. At the bottom right you can see a color page that was also used for announcing Yomi no Tsugai last month.
