One of the titles on the horizon is Negai no Astro by creator Ken Wakui. Of course, this update has earned lots of buzz given Wakui's previous work. The artist has worked primarily with the publisher Kodansha up until now, and Wakui brought Tokyo Revengers to life. But now, it seems they are working with Shueisha on a new manga series.
As for the other series, Fusai Naba is working on Kyokuto Necromance, and readers will know the artist from Aliens Area. Finally, the series Cycle Biyori is slated to go live under Kobayashi Omusuke. When it comes to release schedule, Wakui will see their series go live next week while Naba and Omusuke head out in the following weeks.
At this time, no word has been given on whether these manga titles will be simulpublished by Manga Plus, but the odds are pretty good. Shueisha has been aggressive in publishing its Shonen Jump titles globally in time with Japan. As the manga industry continues to grow, publishers are using tech and social media to get a leg up in competition. So hopefully, fans globally will get to check out these three new Shueisha titles in the coming weeks!
