Titan Manga describes the story:
For the first time in English, experience Record Journey Vol. 1, a captivating collection of short stories by Ryoichiro Kezuka that explores the quiet, powerful intersections of music, memory, and everyday life. At the heart of these stories is a young woman working at a small record store in Tokyo. Each story introduces a new visitor to the shop, each with a unique past, a specific record in mind, and an emotional thread waiting to be uncovered. As the needle drops, so do the walls between strangers, revealing bittersweet moments, long-lost connections, and the smooth healing of sound.
Kezuka launched the ongoing manga in Kadokawa's Aokishi magazine in 2021. Kadokawa shipped the third compiled book volume of the manga on February 20.
Kezuka initially self-published his Otomachi Record manga series. Kadokawa later published the series in January 2023 and shipped the second volume in February 2023.
The manga was previously slated for release on June 9 but will now ship on June 30. It is available for pre-order from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Forbidden Planet.
Titan Manga describes the story of High Elf with a Long Life:
For most high elves, the stillness of the Great Pulha Woodlands isparadise. For Acer, it's been 120 years of stifling calm. Unlike his kin, Acerremembers another life—one as a human in a different world -–completewith cravings for adventure, hearty meals, and the thrill of danger. Armedwith his bow, spirit-blessed fruit, and centuries of skill, he abandons thesylvan idyll to carve out a new destiny beyond the forest.
The manga debuted in Comic Earth Star in June 2021. The manga's ninth compiled book volume shipped in Japan on January 9.
