This year’s 47th issue of Kodansha’s Weekly Shōnen Magazine revealed on Wednesday that writer Yuya Aoki (GetBackers) and illustrator Kaya Tsukiyama (The Knight in the Area) will launch a two-chapter manga titled “Living Iron” in the magazine’s next two issues over the next two weeks.
Aoki (under the pseudonym Hiroaki Igano) and Tsukiyama previously collaborated on the The Knight in the Area soccer manga, which launched in Weekly Shōnen Magazine in 2006, and ended on March 29.
Tsukiyama posted a preview scan of the manga from the 47th issue on Twitter on Wednesday.
The spinoff manga Area no Kishi Bangai-hen: Enokō Early Days about the high school days of Coach Iwaki debuted in 2007, and Kodansha’s Manga Box app released the series.
