posted on by Karen Ressler
Amazon is listing the third volume of Ruzuru Akashiba's manga adaptation of Eto Mori's DIVE!! novels as the final volume. Both the second and third volumes will ship on September 4 in Japan.
Yen Press has licensed the manga and describes the story:
The Mizuki Diving Club has fallen on hard times, and their sponsors are ready to pull their support. They promise to give the club another year of sponsorship if new coach, Kayoko Asaki, can get a member into the Olympics in one year!
Akashiba launched the manga in Kadokawa's Young Ace magazine in June 2017, and the first volume shipped on August 4.
Mori (Colorful original creator, screenplay for Black Jack OAV, Black Jack The Movie) wrote the original four-volume novel series between 2000 and 2002. Mori's novel series inspired a live-action film adaptation in 2008 and a 12-episode anime adaptation in 2017. Masahiro Ikeno drew another five-volume manga adaptation in 2007-2008.
