Popverse Jump: Sayuri is set to be your perfect introduction to Japanese horror manga when it finally comes to the US in Fall 2025
Kodansha is bringing Rensuke Oshikiri’s horror manga about a haunted house that is killing its residences to the US in the Fall.
A good horror manga is worth its weight in gold. Magaka like Junji Ito know how to twist the world around us into something both familiar and yet hauntingly alien at the same time. That is why I’m so excited that Sayuri by Rensuke Oshikiri is finally getting an English release. The dark, twisted, and beautifully haunting manga is coming to the US in Fall 2025 – just in time for a Halloween reading.
The premise of Sayuri isn’t far from many ghost stories you’ve seen or read before. Norio and his family move into their first home together, which would be cause for excitement and celebration. However, within a month, Norio’s father is dead and everyone else is on edge. It is a classic “haunted house is killing people” setup, with just enough twists to the plot to keep it from feeling predictable.
