As Ogure is serializing his latest work, "Kaijin Fugeki," in the same magazine, the illustration and a handwritten message from Shishira Botan were published.
Ogure drew this illustration for Shishira Botan's birthday commemorative goods, and when it was posted on Ogure's official X account on September 30th, it became a hot topic, with related words trending.
Ogure's latest work, "Kaijin Fugeki," is a fantasy epic that is Ogure's new original serialization. Set in a world where "Night," once known as a natural disaster, is on the rise, the story follows boys and girls who dance with all their might to borrow the power of the gods, calm the rage of Night, and save the world. The first volume of the comic was released on August 16th and has proven so popular that it has been reprinted twice. The second volume will be released on November 15th.
