The world of popular Japanese manga (shonen) has seen some major changes recently, as several long-running and incredibly successful series have finished. Titles like Demon Slayer, which is among the best-selling manga ever, ended in 2020, and My Hero Academia followed in 2024. Just months after that, Jujutsu Kaisen also concluded, leaving One Piece as the only remaining top-tier series. However, a new manga, Kagurabachi, has emerged. Despite a rocky beginning, it’s quickly become one of the most popular new series, and it has now finished its first major story arc.
