Shogakukan Lists The Snack World Manga With 1 Volume

posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
Manga launched on April 28, volume slated for December 12

Publisher Shogakukan is listing sho.t's manga adaptation of Level 5's The Snack World game with one volume. The volume is slated for December 12.

Based on the Nintendo 3DS/Android/iOS game, the manga follows a young boy, Chup, who sets out on a quest of revenge after his village is destroyed to make space for a large-scale leisure center.

The series debuted on Shogakukan's Sunday Webry website on April 28 before also launching in Shogakukan's Shōnen Sunday Super magazine on May 25.

The game and manga are part of the new Snack World franchise from Level 5. The "hyper casual fantasy" franchise is set in Snack World, a seemingly traditional fantasy world — except it has convenience stores, smartphones, and other elements of the modern world. Level 5 previously streamed the project's pilot film in both Japanese and English audio in 2015, and a short film similarly debuted alongside both the 2015 and 2016 Yo-kai Watch films.

The Snack World - Trejarers Nintendo 3DS game shipped on August 10, and the iOS and Android versions of the game will arrive in 2018.

The franchise has a television anime that premiered on April 13. OLM Digital, Inc. is animating the series. A film is in the works that will open in TOHO theaters across Japan.
