Akase Tomato's New Manga Series "Isekai Mahou Shoujo Radical☆Haruna" Volume 1 Released
The first volume of "Isekai Mahou Shoujo Radical☆Haruna" written by Akase Tomato was released on June 4, 2024, under the Kadokawa Comics Ace imprint of KADOKAWA. The manga tells the story of a magical girl summoned to another world, who stands out in this surreal universe for both her purity and her eccentricity.
One of the most notable details about the series is the recommendation blurb on the obi strip from Ryukishi07, creator of the famous visual novel series "Higurashi no Naku Koro ni". Describing this new manga as "a strange work that blends a magical girl fantasy with love, courage, and friendship mixed with wild action," Ryukishi07 also emphasizes the author's dark and unconventional style with the words, "This Tomato is not red, but thoroughly black!"
Akase Tomato is known for popular series such as "Kuro no Shoukanshi" (Black Summoner). His new project aims to offer an unconventional experience by combining the isekai genre with magical girl (mahou shoujo) themes. As the series title suggests, the main character Haruna is notable for her 'radical' extremes of behavior on one hand, while carrying childish innocence on the other. This dichotomy is considered the key element that sets the series apart from its peers.
Having made a strong debut with its first volume in Japan, the manga has attracted attention with support from an important industry figure like Ryukishi07. "Isekai Mahou Shoujo Radical☆Haruna" is expected to particularly appeal to fans of isekai and magical girl genres, standing out with its dark humor and high-paced action scenes. An official date for the second volume has not yet been announced, but given the interest in the first volume, a continuation is highly likely. Readers in Turkey can also follow the series depending on translation licenses from publishers.
