posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins
The August issue of Kodansha's Dessert magazine revealed on Monday that Nikki Asada will launch a new manga series tentatively titled Seishun Re Start in the manga's September issue on July 24.
The romantic comedy manga centers on Shiroha Suehiro, a high school student who doesn't talk much. As a result of losing a game, Shiroha makes a love confession to the most popular boy in her class, Takasago, and it becomes the talk of the class. But Takasago also does not realize that Shiroha confessed to him as a dare, and keeps seriously pressing her about going out on dates.
Asada also launched a separate manga (pictured below) titled ano Kane wo Narasu no wa Sukunakutemo Omae ja nai (Who's Gonna Ring that Bell? Of Course, It's Me!!, or lit., At the Very Least the One to Ring the Bell Won't Be You) in the June issue of Akita Shoten's Monthly Princess magazine on May 2. The manga centers on Chika and Aya, two high school students who have each fallen in love with their teacher, and who compete to win over his affection.
Kodansha Comics is publishing Asada's The Prince's Romance Gambit (Ōji ga Watashi wo Akiramenai!) manga in English digitally. Asada is also known as the novel illustrator and original character designer for the Sound! Euphonium franchise.
