The website for Square Enix’s Gangan Joker magazine revealed on Saturday that Shinya Murata is launching a new manga with artist Tokisada Hayami titled Blattodea in the magazine’s February issue on January 22.
The manga will serve as a sequel to Murata and artist Ifuji Shinsen’s Arachnid manga, which ran in Gangan Joker from 2009 to 2016.
Murata and Hayami then launched the Chōbu no Shinobi (Lepidoptela) manga in Gangan Joker in April 2017, and ended the manga on July 12.
Murata’s Killing Bites manga with artist Kazasa Sumita inspired a 12-episode television anime that premiered in January 2018.
