posted on by Joanna Cayanan

The December issue of Square Enix's Monthly G Fantasy magazine announced on Friday that Tsutomu Satou's The Irregular at Magic High School (Mahōka Kōkō no Rettōsei) light novel will get three new simulcast manga serializations in the magazine, and in Kadokawa's Monthly Comic Dengeki Daioh magazine in 2023.

Manga creator Tsuna Kitaumi will adapt the "Koritsu-hen" (Isolation Arc) (pictured above) from the light novel's 23rd volume, and Square Enix's Monthly G Fantasy magazine will serialize the manga.

Mei Higuchi will adapt the "Dōran no Joshō-hen" (Prologue of Disturbance Arc) (pictured above, left) from the light novel's 21st and 22nd volumes, and Yuzuki N Dash will adapt the "Escape Arc" (pictured above, right) from the 24th and 25th volumes. Kadokawa's Monthly Comic Dengeki Daioh magazine will serialize both manga adaptations.

Kitaumi drew the manga adaptation of Mahōka Kōkō no Rettōsei: Kyūkōsen-hen (The Irregular at Magic High School: Nine School Battle Arc) in 2013, Mahōka Kōkō no Rettōsei: Double Seven-hen in 2016, and the Mahōka Kōkō no Rettōsei: Yotsuba Keishō-hen (The Irregular at Magic High School: Yotsuba Inheritance Arc) in 2020. All three manga adaptations were serialized in Monthly G Fantasy.

Higuchi launched the manga adaptation of Kyōsuke Kamishiro's Boku ga Kotaeru Kimi no Nazotoki (I'll Answer Your Mystery) novel in July 2021 in Monthly Comic Dengeki Daioh magazine, and ended the manga on July 27.

Yuzuki N Dash drew the Mahōka Kōkō no Rettōsei: Natsu Yasumi-hen (The Irregular at Magic High School: Summer Vacation Arc) manga in Monthly Comic Dengeki Daioh from October 2016 to December 2017. Yuzuki N Dash also drew the Mahōka Kōkō no Rettōsei: Kaichō Senkyo-hen (The Irregular at Magic High School: President Election Arc) manga, which launched in Monthly Comic Dengeki Daioh in April 2018, and ended in September 2018. Yuzuki N Dash then launched the Mahōka Kōkō no Rettōsei: Koto Nairan-hen (The Irregular at Magic High School: Ancient City Insurrection Arc) manga in Monthly Comic Dengeki Daioh in March 2019, and ended the manga series in January. Nobu Aonagi launched the Mahōka Kōkō no Rettōsei: Nankai Sōjō-hen manga Monthly Comic Dengeki Daioh in February 2021, and ended it on August 26.
