Hakusensha has announced that a new manga series titled "Kakumo Chiisaki Sekai ni te" (In Such a Small World) by Natsuki Takaya will be released on its Manga Park platform.
The upcoming manga focuses on a love story and revolves around Sui Onodera, a 23-year-old living in an apartment. Sui's life takes an unexpected turn when their neighbor, Kaoru Seto, shows up unannounced. The reason for the sudden visit? Kaoru's dog Tino has mysteriously found its way onto Sui's balcony. This unusual event serves as the catalyst for Kaoru becoming a significant figure in Sui's daily life.
The new series appears to be a departure from Takaya's earlier fantasy works, focusing instead on more realistic and relatable experiences. While "Fruits Basket" dealt with the mystical aspects of life and human emotions, "Kakumo Chiisaki Sekai ni te" seems to center on the nuances of ordinary life and relationships. Given Takaya's track record, readers can expect rich character development and an emotionally engaging narrative.
