Yen Press has Doubt; Barrage coming to an end

Posted on September 6, 2012 by Brigid Alverson

Yen Press has licensed Yoshiki Tonogai’s horror manga Doubt, which it will publish in omnibus form; the series is up to volume 5 in Japan.

The next chapter of Barrage to run in Weekly Shonen Jump will be the last, which means that the series will wind up for North American readers of Shonen Jump Alpha two weeks later.

Sean Gaffney takes a look at next week’s new manga releases.

Laura takes a look at the newest shoujo series heading our way in September at Heart of Manga.

Three Steps Over Japan continues its barrage of magazine posts with commentary on Weekly Young Jump and G-Fantasy.

News from Japan: Tachibana Higuchi is wrapping up Gakuen Alice, which has been running for ten years now; the final chapter will appear in an upcoming issue of Hana to Yume.
