Kobayashi Ritz's blog post 20.02.25

Kobayashi Ritz has just updated her blog with more information about the return of Achiga-hen. Ritz seems rather optimistic about the monthly page production but perhaps the pressure of having to keep up with Aguri will push her to draw more pages than ever before.

Ritz's blog 20.02.25

As announced in this month's issue of Big Gangan, the serialization of Achiga-hen will resume.

Starting from the final match as Volume 7.

Roughly ten years ago, during meetings with the anime staff, we talked some nonsense about how it would be nice to draw the final match from the point of view of both Kiyosumi and Achiga at the same time. But since my progress with the main story is rather slow and the final was still far, it could not be implemented until now.

Since there is no need to think about new scores or new story developments, this should not take as much time. I can produce roughly 24 pages a month, even if we add the excess production intended for Aguri-sensei for a total of roughly 30 pages a month, I should be able to stay ahead or at least that's the plan.

Saki Achiga-hen New Series!!

The continuation of Saki Achiga-hen (manga) has been announced. The new series should begin next month (March 25th) in Big Gangan magazine (same as Shinohayu and Toki). The authors are the same, Kobayashi Ritz and Igarashi Aguri.

It seems the story will pick up where it ended, after Achiga Girls' qualified for the final of the Interhigh. Wait a sec, wouldn't that overlap with the Saki main story? Yes, that's what everyone is wondering. How exactly is that going to play out, no one knows.

Anyway, I'll try to keep you posted if more information is revealed.

Toki 38: Sincerity

This chapter should be called "Fast Forward". It's good we are moving on though. I wonder what will be next.
