The new series will run concurrently with Shojo Fight, with the latter transitioning to a bimonthly release schedule until its conclusion. Nihonbashi shared the news on social media, expressing excitement for the upcoming projects.
Shojo Fight, published by Kodansha, follows the story of Neri Oishi, a 15-year-old volleyball player at Hakuunzan Private Academy Middle School.

Fans of Shojo Fight can look forward to more exciting developments in the coming year as Nihonbashi expands their creative endeavors. Stay tuned for updates on the new manga series and the future of Shojo Fight as it nears its conclusion. Exciting times lie ahead for fans of this captivating volleyball drama.
