Kodoani.com – The third issue of this year’s Young Champion magazine from Akita Publishing revealed on Tuesday that the fourth part of the manga “Never” by Santa Inoue will end its fourth issue on January 23.
The manga’s “fourth season” began on July 25. The “third season” began in September 2022 and ended in Young Champion’s fifth issue in February 2023.
The manga launched in Young Champion magazine in March 2021 and ended its “first season” in August 2021. The second season debuted in February 2022 and ended in July 2022. Akita Shoten published the manga’s third compilation volume in April 2023.
The “psychological” manga is about a very normal family caught up in “excessive” violence.
Inoue’s other manga include “Tokyo Tribe”, “Tokyo Tribe 2”, “Tokyo Tribe 3”, “Rinjin 13-gō”, “Inoue Santa”, and “Born 2 Die”. Tokyopop acquired the “Tokyo Tribe 2” manga and published seven volumes in English under the title “Tokyo Tribes”, before the company closed its North American publishing operations in 2011.
Studio Madhouse adapted “Tokyo Tribe” into a 13-episode anime in 2006. Director Shion Sono (Suicide Club, Shinjuku Swan) adapted the manga into live action.
