Kazurou Inoue Launches New Manga Space Leader Jagasaki
A fresh project is on the way from manga creator Kazurou Inoue. Publisher Nihonbungeisha has confirmed that his new bishōjo gun-action series Uchū Banchō Jagasaki will debut in the 100th issue of Comic Heaven, scheduled for release on February 28. A preview of the upcoming cover featuring the new title has already been revealed, giving fans a first look at the project’s stylish sci-fi vibe.
The manga promises a mix of cute character designs and high-energy action set in space, marking another genre shift for Inoue, who has built a reputation for blending comedy, romance, and over-the-top concepts across his works.

Inoue is widely known for Midori no Hibi, which ran in Weekly Shōnen Sunday from 2002 to 2004 and later inspired a 2004 anime adaptation. Since then, the author has continued experimenting with different styles through titles such as Shitei Bōryoku Shōjo Shiomi-chan, Aho Genome ~Samuzaka Satanic Hair~, and Amō Amane wa Amakunai.
With its space setting and action-heavy premise, Space Leader Jagasaki is shaping up to be a colorful new addition to Inoue’s catalog when it hits shelves later this month.
