The creator of Attack on Titan reveals his new manga
The creator of The attack of the TitansHajime Isayama, finally reveals his new manga after the worldwide success of his latest work.
The attack of the Titans (Or Shingeki no Kyojin in original version) is undoubtedly one of the most popular mangas of the last decade. Written and illustrated by Hajime Isayama, the manga has become one of the most beloved works by fans around the world, thanks in part to its anime adaptation. And while the manga ended in 2021 and the anime concluded in 2023, Isayama will finally embark on a new project.
Indeed, the mangaka recently announced a new spin-off of the Soyogi Fractal software. The project will see Isayama collaborate with famous seiyū (ie: voice actor) Yūki Kaji. The latter is known, among other things, for having lent his voice to the protagonist of The attack of the Titans, Eren Jäger, in the original version of the anime. So fans are quite excited to see the partnership between the two once again.
This spin-off from Soyogi Fractal will take the form of a one-shot manga where we will follow the eponymous protagonist. Created by Kaji and illustrated by Mai Yoneyama, Soyogi is none other than the avatar of an AI created to reproduce the voice of the voice actor, thus allowing all kinds of songs to be composed. The project aims to celebrate Kaji's 20-year career.
“A new one-shot manga spin-off “Soyogi Fractal” by Hajime Isayama and Yuki Kaji has been announced. The “Soyogi Fractal” project celebrates Yuki Kaji’s 20th anniversary as a voice actor.
Original idea: Yuki Kaji
Original story: Hajime Isayama
Illustrator: to be confirmed
Release: summer 2024″
Soyogi Fractal is announced for a summer 2024 release, although no official date has been revealed. To promote the project, the creators shared the cover of the ending of part 2 of season 4 of the anime The attack of the Titans, 'Akuma no Ko', sung by Kaji's AI-generated voice. You can find the cover in question just below.
If Isayama is in charge of the storyboards, we do not yet know the name of the artist who will provide the illustrations for this Soyogi Fractal spin-off. So fans are eagerly waiting to see what the creator of The attack of the Titans will then bring with his new manga. The collaboration between Isayama and Kaji makes the one-shot project even more exciting for the fan community.
