Seven Seas Entertainment has picked up a manga series that some will love and some will be creeped out by with Giant Spider & Me: A Post-Apocalyptic Tale by Kikori Morino, Originally known as Owari Nochi, Asanagi Gurashi, the series kicked off in X and just had its first volume released in March of this year.
“Fans of The Ancient Magus’ Bride and The Girl From the Other Side: Siúil, a Rún will especially love this series, since it ran in the same magazine,” says Seven Seas Production Manager Lissa Pattillo. “It’s a really creative take on the slice of life genre, complete with a charming arachnid lead!”
Seven Seas will bring the series in print for the first time in North America as single volume editions with the scheduled for February 20, 2018 for $12.99 USA / $14.99 CAN.
