Brave10's Kairi Shimotsuki Ends Ayakashi Parade Game Manga

Supernatural basketball series launched in July 2016
The April issue of Kadokawa's Monthly Comic Gene magazine published the final chapter of Kairi Shimotsuki's Ayakashi Parade Game manga on Thursday. Kadokawa will publish the manga's third compiled volume on March 27.

Shimotsuki launched the manga in Monthly Comic Gene in July 2016. Kadokawa published the manga's second compiled volume in September 2017. The manga centers on yōkai supernatural creatures, and on the members of a basketball team known as the "Hiroe Industry of 5 Fouls" who always lose.

Shimotsuki launched the Arthur Bright manga in Tokuma Shoten's Comic Zenon magazine in May 2017, and the manga will switch to Comic Zenon's sister website Comic Zenyon on April 22.

Shimotsuki recently serialized the one-volume Brave10 Tawamure spinoff series from June 2016 to January 2017. She launched Brave10 S, the continuation of her original Brave10 manga, in the first issue of Monthly Comic Gene in 2011, and ended the series in March 2016.

The original Brave10 manga inspired a television anime in 2012, and Crunchyroll streamed the series as it aired in Japan. NIS America released a Blu-ray Disc box of Brave10 in 2013.

North American publisher Digital Manga Publishing licensed Shimotsuki's A Century of Temptation manga and published it in 2013. Tokyopop published Shimotsuki's Madness manga in 2009, and Udon Entertainment published her Devil Kings Basara manga in 2008.
