The original Akagi manga series begins on one stormy night, when Nangō is playing a game of Mahjong with the local yakuza.
Nobuyuki Fukumoto launched a serialization of his Yami Ma no Mamiya (Yami-Mahjong Fighter Mamiya) manga in the August issue of Takeshobo’s Kindai Mahjong magazine on July 1.
Fukumoto launched the Akagi manga series in Kindai Mahjong in 1992, and it ran for 27 years.
The manga marks Fukumoto’s newest work in the magazine, 15 months after he ended his Akagi manga in the magazine in February 2018.
