Yen Press publishes manga about 3-headed dog in the form of cute girls
This year's May issue of Square Enix's Monthly Shonen Gangan magazine announced on Thursday that Ato Sakurai's Today's Cerberus (Kyō no Kerberos) manga will end in the next issue on May 11. The final chapter will have color pages in the center of the magazine.
Yen Press licensed the manga and the describes the story:
As a young boy, Chiaki Mikado had an encounter with an unusual, three-headed puppy, and as a consequence of a bite from that dog, he lost a piece of his soul. Now a teenager, he finds himself unable to enjoy anything, but the three-headed dog is back in human form -- or more accurately forms -- to fix all that! Turns out that the three heads of the mythical guardian to the gates of the underworld are actually unique individuals, and each a pretty young girl at that! With his new roommate(s) leading the charge, can Chiaki experience the happiness that has so long eluded him?
Sakurai first published the manga as a one-shot in Monthly Shonen Gangan in 2013 and then launched it as a series later the same year. Square Enix published the 10th volume in November.
Yen Press began releasing the volumes digitally in July 2015, and began simultaneous publication in October 2015. The company released the first volume in print in 2016.
