Digital Manga Posting Kimagure Orange Road Volumes Weekly
posted on by Lynzee Loveridge
Digital Manga, Inc. will release digital weekly volumes of Izumi Matsumoto's Kimagure Orange Road romantic comedy manga. The company released volume five on Friday, and subsequent volumes will be released on following Fridays through volume 10.
The first volume of Kimagure Orange Road was posted in English for Amazon's Kindle e-book platform last year.
The original Kimagure Orange Road manga series ran in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine from 1984 to 1987. The 18-volume story followed a boy with supernatural powers as he dealt with a love triangle between two girls in his high school.
The manga inspired a popular 1987-1988 television anime series, two movies, and various anime videos. AnimEigo released the television anime series, the first movie, and the later video anime series, while ADV Films handled the second movie, Kimagure Orange Road: Summer's Beginning.
Matsumoto will attend Japan Expo 2nd Impact at the San Mateo Convention Center in California from August 22 to August 24.
