Readers of Shogakukan's Weekly Shonen Sunday are preparing for a major milestone as Yellow Tanabe's dark fantasy series Kai-hen Wizards (Kaihen no Mahōtsukai) approaches its conclusion. The magazine's 45th issue announced that the manga will publish its upcoming series finale chapter on October 14, featuring an expanded 26-page spread.
Launched in September 2024, the narrative follows a young protagonist forced into exile to prevent his catastrophic magical abilities from consuming the world. Viz Media handles the English simultaneous publication, offering international readers direct access to the magical realm crafted by the creator.
