This year’s 21st issue of Shueisha’s Margaret magazine announced on Wednesday that Ryoko Ikeda will serialize a two-part extra episode of her The Rose of Versailles manga in the magazine’s 22nd and 23rd issues on October 20 and November 5, respectively.
Ikeda published a 16-page one-shot, “Rose of Versailles Episode,” in Shueisha’s Margaret magazine in 2013, 40 years after the end of the original series.
Sheuisha published The Rose of Versailles volume 11, the first in four decades, in August 2014.
The two-part manga, titled “Versailles no Bara Episode 8,” focuses on Queen Marie Antoinette and the genius watchmaker Breguet.
