In an unlikely collaboration between franchises, light novel series Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- and manga series A Couple of Cuckoos are teaming up for some specialty goods exclusive to readers of Weekly Shonen Magazine.
While the two franchises are published by different companies, with Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- at KADOKAWA and Cuckoos at Kodansha, the collaboration came together in Kodansha’s Weekly Shonen Magazine to celebrate the upcoming TV anime for Cuckoos, which was announced earlier this year and is scheduled for a 2022 release.
The visual of Emilia and Erika was drawn by Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World-, Chapter 4: The Sanctuary and the Witch of Greed manga illustrator Haruno Atori and A Couple of Cuckoos creator Miki Yoshikawa in celebration of the A Couple of Cuckoos TV anime series announcement.
