Bambi and Her Pink Gun's Kaneko Ends Deathco Manga
posted on by Karen Ressler
This year's February issue of Kadokawa's Monthly Comic Beam magazine published the final chapter of Atsushi Kaneko's Deathco manga on Friday. Yoko Kondou's manga adaptation of Kōtarō Tanaka's Kama no Chi novel and Sansuke Yamada's Areyo Hoshikuzu manga also ended in the same issue.
Kaneko launched Deathco in the magazine's February 2014 issue. Kadokawa released the sixth volume on June 24 and the seventh and final volume will ship on February 10. Kadokawa describes the manga as a "super exhilarating 'death' carnival" starring an "ultra pop go-getter hit girl who shakes up a boring world."
Digital Manga Publishing released two of six volumes of Kaneko's earlier manga Bambi and her Pink Gun in English in 2005. Kaneko's SOIL inspired a live-action television series in 2010. SOIL and Kaneko's Wet Moon have been nominated for Best Crime Comic at France's Angoulême International Comics Festival.
