A Manga That Moved Horikoshi
Kohei Horikoshi is definitely one of the biggest and most successful mangaka in the world. He is the creator of My Hero Academia, also known as Boku no Hero Academia. His series has been very influential and is definitely one of the most well-known anime worldwide.
It’s not uncommon for famous mangaka to recommend new series, as their own popularity can help other series’, as fans trust their word. Kohei Horikoshi has now recommended yet another manga. As fans know, Horikoshi had already recommended a manga a few months prior. That manga was none other than Ichi The Witch, and one can say this has tremendously helped the manga, so much so that Ichi The Witch’s sales are skyrocketing, and the series is expected to become one of Shonen Jump’s next big hits.
Now, Kohei Horikoshi’s newest recommendation is a manga known as Asura’s Verdict. This manga is by author Utsugi Unohana. But, to put it plainly, the manga is not doing very well. Its sales are quite low, which is not a great sign.
What is Asura’s Verdict About?
Here’s how Manga Plus describes this manga, for fans interested in reading it:
“”Only do good deeds.”—Asura follows his late mother’s teachings and always strives to do good in life. No matter how much he is bullied, he goes on with a smile, firmly believing that evildoers will receive divine punishment. Until one day, an ominous old man offers him a key that can open the doors to hell…”
This manga definitely has a good premise, and is currently only 9 chapters long, so there is still hope for the series, especially with Horikoshi’s help, which will get it more attention from a wider audience. Many have even compared this series to Death Note, but what happens next with it remains to be seen. Be sure to give it a shot!
