Scriptwriter Bingo Tokio and illustrator Mimori launched their Ushiro manga in December 2015, but the series went on hiatus in 2016 due to Mimori’s health.
Riu Gotō’s Ushiro: Fukigen na Shinigami novel series debuted with toi8’s cover illustrations in 2014, and Kadokawa released three volumes.
Level-5 president and CEO Akihiro Hino revealed in an interview in this week’s issue of Gzbrain Inc.’s Weekly Famitsu magazine on Thursday that the company is developing the Ushiro game for the Nintendo Switch.
Though unreleased, the game inspired a novel series and two manga series.
