They also acquired Fushi no Kami: Rebuilding Civilization Starts with a Village. This series comes from writer Mizuumi Amakawa with artwork by Mai Ooguma. This series began in 2019 as well and has three volumes out so far.
Plot concept: Ash is an 8-year-old boy with apparent past-life memories, who lives in a remote deserted village. As he remembers leading a bountiful life, he cannot bear living in a world akin to the Dark Ages, where not even the internal combustion engine exists. For that reason, he needs to consult books containing knowledge from a highly developed ancient culture, that is said to have existed far in the past. This is only the beginning of story about a young boy who sets out to revolutionize the world in order to rebuild civilization and achieve his ideal life!
Next up is “Fushi no Kami: Rebuilding Civilization Starts with a Village”, featuring Ash, a child with memories of his past life who is stuck in the Dark Ages. Unable to bear living in such horrible conditions he sets out to achieve his ideal life! Also debuting in Late August! pic.twitter.com/UVnhhb4bH2
