Manga creator Mizuki Kawashita (Ichigo 100%, Hatsukoi Limited) will launch a new manga series in the June issue of Shueisha's Jump Square magazine on May 2. In the same issue, Naruto creator Masashi Kishimoto will contribute a new one-shot manga, and Prince of Tennis creator Takeshi Konomi will contribute a special one-shot.
Kawashita launched the Ichigo 100% (Strawberry 100%) manga in Weekly Shonen Jump in 2002. The series ran for 19 volumes and Viz Media released the 14th volume in North America in 2010. The series was adapted into a television anime series, a four-episode video anime, and an anime special. Viz is currently streaming the series on its website and on Hulu.
Kawasaki's Hachikoi Limited manga was adapted into a television anime in 2009 and licensed by Sentai Filmworks. Kawasaki has since created the Anedoki manga in 2009 followed by her Ⓖ Edition manga.
