This year's 19th issue of Kodansha's Evening magazine revealed on Tuesday that manga creator Daruma Matsuura will launch a new manga series titled Ima/Kako Yuku Kohakuiro no Hate in the magazine's 20th issue on September 24.
The manga is a full serialization of the four-chapter mini-series of the same name that Matsuura launched in Evening on December 25.
Matsuura launched her Kasane manga in Evening in April 2013 as her debut work, and ended it on August 2018. Kodansha published the manga's 14th and final volume in September 2018. The manga was nominated for the Kodansha Manga Awards and the Manga Taisho Award in 2015.
Kodansha Comics began releasing the manga digitally in English in 2017. The manga inspired a live-action film adaptation that had its first screening at the Neuchâtel International Fantastic Film Festival in Switzerland in July 2018 and won the audience award in the international competition category. The film opened in Japan in September 2018 at #9.
