In the 40th issue of Shogakukan's Weekly Shonen Sunday magazine, a new manga series was recently announced, "Ryū Okuri no Isagi (Isagi the Dragon Executioner)," by Makoto Hoshino, the creator of "The Tale of the Outcasts." The manga will debut on September 3 on the Sunday Webry manga website, with new chapters released every two weeks. Hoshino confirmed the news by posting a photo of the magazine announcement on his Twitter account.
The magazine's teaser hints at an adventurous journey as a dragon slayer in a dragon-inhabited world, beginning on a penal colony island called Ryōgokutō. The protagonist is a young executioner named Isagi, who possesses the unique ability to briefly glimpse the memories of those he beheads. Eventually, his path crosses with a famous general named Tatsunami.
Hoshino is no stranger to this genre, as he debuted with "The Tale of the Outcasts" in Shogakukan's Weekly Shonen Sunday in August 2019. The series concluded in April 2021, with the final eighth volume set to release alongside the seventh volume in May 2021.
