This year’s 47th issue of Viz’s English edition of Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump magazine announced on Monday that it will begin publishing Shirow Miwa’s manga adaptation of the RWBY web series in the next issue on October 31.
The manga series debuted in Shueisha’s Ultra Jump magazine last November.
The manga is a prequel about these four girls who would eventually make up Team RWBY upon enrolling in Beacon Academy.
Editor-in-chief Andy Nakatani announced on the Weekly Shonen Jump podcast that it will run chapters weekly until it catches up to the Japanese chapters, which are serialized monthly.
