Kamisama Dolls' Hajime Yamamura Launches Cold War Fantasy Manga

This year's September issue of Shogakukan's Monthly Sunday GX magazine announced on Saturday that Hajime Yamamura will begin a new series titled Hime Yadori in the next issue on September 19. The first chapter will have color pages.

The action fantasy manga's story takes place during the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union. A coup d'état breaks out in a certain small country, and as a result three princesses are pursued by their homeland. Sometimes with guns and sometimes with power, the sisters flee their pursuers.

Yamamura's Kamisama Dolls manga, which ended in 2013, inspired a 13-episode anime series that aired from July to September 2011. Crunchyroll streamed Kamisama Dolls in various countries as it aired in Japan.
