The website revealed that the new Muhyo and Roji sequel is titled Muhyo to Roji no Mahōritsu Sōdan Jimusho: Mazoku Magushi-hen (Muhyo & Roji's Bureau of Supernatural Investigation: Magical Genus Magic Tool Master Chapter). Original creator Yoshiyuki Nishi is drawing the series, and it will follow Muhyo and his friends after they have grown a little after the conclusion of the first series. The original manga ran in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine from 2004 to 2008.

The film, the first in a trilogy, opened in Japan on November 17 and began streaming on Netflix worldwide on January 17. The manga will cover story material not in the anime, add original elements, and offer a glimpse into the "surprising past" of the characters.
In addition, Shonen Jump + will launch Perico's Jikai no Death Game ni Gokitai Kudasai!! (Please Look Forward to the Next Death Game) manga on March 23.
