Lily Hoshino's Otome Yōkai Zakuro manga is also moving to Denshi Birz on July 30, but it will take a hiatus while the chapters begin serializing again from the first chapter. Akihiro Yamada's Beast of east and pako's Ayuni, which are on hiatus, will be on Denshi Birz when they return.
Akari Funato's Under the Rose will be available digitally on September 10, though details have not yet been announced. Kiki's Variée Garden will move to the Rutile Sweet web magazine on August 22.
Kodansha launched the magazine with the name Comic Burger in 1986. The magazine transferred to Scholar in 1988, and the company changed the magazine's name to Comic Birz in 1996. The magazine moved to Sony Magazines in 1999 after Scholar closed down. After Sony Magazines withdrew from the manga business in 2001, the magazine and its staff moved to Gentosha.
