This year's 48th issue of Shogakukan's Weekly Big Comic Spirits magazine revealed on Monday that Keiko Nishi will launch a new manga in the magazine's 49th issue on November 5.

JManga published two volumes of Nishi's four-volume series Kyudo Boys, about the romantic relationships of a group of high school boys, digitally in English before the the site ended service.
