Kodoani.com – An exciting news for the Vocaloid fan community. In the August issue of Comic Gene magazine, there was some very interesting information. Mahiro Satou, the popular manga creator from the “Kagerou Daze” series, decided to adapt the popular Vocaloid song “Alkali Underachiever” by Kairiki Bear into a new Manga version. On August 12, fans will be immersed in the wonderful and emotional world of this song through the colorful pages.
“Alkali Underachiever” is a Vocaloid song that has gone viral since it was released in November 2016 on Nico Nico and YouTube. With immeasurable success, this song has also appeared in the mobile game versions of #COMPASS by NHN PlayArt Corp, just a month after its release in December 2016.
In particular, Mahiro Satou, who made a splash with the “Kagerou Daze” manga based on JIN’s “Kagerou Project” Vocaloid series, is preparing to bring a whole new manga experience. The story will be inspired by the story in the song “Alkali Underachiever”, and readers will be immersed in the character’s emotional journey. August 25 will be the official release date for this musical manga adaptation from Kadokawa’s MF Bunko J publisher.
Not only providing a unique manga reading experience, “Kagerou Daze” also adapted a successful TV anime series called “Mekaku City Actors” in 2014. In addition, the animated short film “MX4D Kagerou” Daze -in a days-” created a fever when it was released in Japan in November 2016.
With all the success that has been achieved, we cannot deny the overwhelming success of the Vocaloid series and the creativity of artists such as Kairiki Bear, Mahiro Satou and Kadokawa. This unique combination promises to continue to bring great experiences to music and manga fans around the world.
