For the fantasy manga series "I'm Standing on a Million Lives" (100-Man no Inochi no Ue ni Ore wa Tatteiru), a decisive moment is approaching. Readers can expect an exciting turn of events, as Kodansha's Bessatsu Shōnen Magazine revealed in its latest July issue that the story is preparing for the "final decisive battle."
The work by Naoki Yamakawa and Akinari Nao has captivated audiences with the tale of unlikely hero Yusuke Yotsuya, a pragmatic and lonely ninth-grader. His life takes a dramatic turn when he and two female classmates are transported to a foreign world. Suddenly, the trio faces life-or-death trials, forcing them to band together and fight for survival in their new reality. For Yotsuya, a self-proclaimed loner, this development poses a particular challenge, as he is now destined to play the role of a hero.
"I'm Standing on a Million Lives" began its journey in Bessatsu Shōnen Magazine in June 2016. The story quickly gained popularity and led to a TV anime adaptation. The first season premiered in October 2020, with all 12 episodes completed three months before the scheduled release. The second season aired in July 2021, with both seasons streamed simultaneously in Japan by Crunchyroll.
