Norihiro Yagi launched a new manga titled BARTLET FAIRY BASSLET on Shueisha's Shonen Jump+ service on Monday. Shueisha will publish the second chapter on November 9.
MANGA Plus began publishing the manga in English on the same day, and it describes the story:
After defeating her nemesis, Knight-Captain and Princess Brunhilde sees a mysterious shining fish fall from the sky... From the creator of Claymore comes a new hack and slash fantasy epic!
Viz Media's Shonen Jump service is also publishing the manga in English.
Yagi debuted his Claymore manga in 2001 and ended the series in 2014. Viz Media released the 27-volume series in North America. The manga inspired a television anime adaptation in 2007, and Funimation released the anime on home video.
Yagi's Angel Densetsu manga ran from 1993 to 2000, and Shueisha published 15 compiled book volumes. The series inspired an original video anime in 1996.
Yagi's Sōkyū no Ariadne (Ariadne in the Blue Sky) manga launched in Shogakukan's Weekly Shonen Sunday magazine in December 2017, and ended in February 2023. The manga has 22 volumes.
