There is bittersweet news for Dragon Hunt Tribe fans: The manga written by Shiro Kuroi is completing its journey planned for a total of five volumes. According to the official announcement, the final volume is being prepared for release in Japan, while the series had previously been made available to readers in French.
Created by Shiro Kuroi, Dragon Hunt Tribe is an epic fantasy story centered around dragon hunting. The manga first began its adventure in Japan in 2022 in the magazine Monthly Shonen Gangan and quickly gained a loyal readership. Kuroi was previously known for the series Shadow of the Beast; in this new work, he blended tribal dynamics, human-nature conflict, and dragon mythology to create a unique world.
The series' international journey began last year in July 2024 with the release of the first volume under the French publisher Kurokawa. The positive reception of the French edition strengthened the likelihood of translations into other languages. However, no English or Turkish licensing agreement has been announced yet. Still, the announcement of the finale could be ideal timing for readers who want to follow a completed series.
The decision to end the series at five volumes can be interpreted as a desire to tell the story without compressing it. Kuroi had stated in previous interviews that he prefers a concise narrative. It is expected that with the final volume of Dragon Hunt Tribe, all mysteries will be resolved and the characters' fates will become clear. The release date of the final volume in Japan has not been announced yet, but it is expected to be revealed in the coming months.
This news is important both for Kuroi's fans and for those who love short but impactful manga. Those who have not yet discovered the series can now start this completed five-volume journey. For readers in Turkey, accessing the Japanese or French editions via digital platforms is currently the most practical option. We hope that a Turkish publisher will soon bring these dragon hunters to local readers.
