The 20th issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine featured the final chapter of Seiji Hayashi's manga "Ichigoki's Under Control!!" (Ichigōki! Sōjūchū). The second and final volume of the manga is set to be released on June 2.

Shueisha's MANGA Plus service has digitally published the manga in English. The story revolves around Ichigoki, an ordinary child who dies after an encounter with a runaway eastern lowland gorilla. He then awakens as a full-metal cyborg and embarks on a series of adventures with his childhood friend Misao, a mad scientist. This gag manga explores themes like growing up and friendship.

Seiji Hayashi launched "Ichigoki's Under Control!!" in Weekly Shonen Jump on November 28, and Shueisha released the manga's first volume on April 4. Hayashi previously worked on the manga "I'm From Japan" (Jimoto ga Japan), which ran in Weekly Shonen Jump from 2018 to 2020.
