Shimizu previously adapted Kyogoku’s Mōryō no Hako, Kyōkotsu no Yume, Ubume no Natsu, and Jorōgumo no Kotowari novels from the same series into manga.
Mōryō no Hako, the second novel, inspired a television anime with character designs by CLAMP in 2008, and an original video anime the following year.
The April issue will also launch a manga adaptation of Keeichi Sigsawa’s Kino’s Journey novels.
Kyogoku published the novel in 1996 as the fourth novel in his Hyakki Yagyū (Many Monsters) series.
