Article excerpt

Daisaku Tsuru's ocean-based sci-fi manga Protocol Ryugu is getting a Japanese serialization after debuting in English. The series initially appeared in a special English issue of Weekly Young Magazine, marking an unusual reverse path to publication, most manga titles typically launch in Japan first. The serialization brings Tsuru's underwater-set story to the author's home market, expanding the manga's reach beyond its initial English-speaking audience.
