Elex Media announced last Friday that it has licensed Kenji Taira's Rock Lee no Seishun Full-Power Ninden manga.
The gag comedy manga centers around the secondary Naruto character Rock Lee.
The manga ran in Shueisha's Saikyō Jump magazine from 2010 to 2014. Shueisha published seven compiled book volumes for the manga. The manga inspired the 51-episode Naruto Spin-Off: Rock Lee & His Ninja Pals anime series in 2012-2013.
Taira also launched another Naruto comedy spinoff manga titled Uchiha Sasuke no Sharingan Den that revolves around Sasuke Uchiha. The manga ended in April 2017. Shueisha published the third and final compiled book volume for the manga in July 2017.
Taira launched Boruto SD, a new spin-off series of Ukyō Kodachi and Mikie Ikemoto's Boruto: Naruto Next Generations manga series, in Saikyō Jump in March 2017.
