Shueisha announced that Aka Akasaka’s Kaguya-sama: Love is War and Oshi no Ko series will receive new novels on November 17. These novels will contain stories that happen after notable portions of the manga series, so there will be slight spoilers ahead.
Akasaka began the Kaguya-sama: Love is War manga in Shueisha’s Miracle Jump magazine in May 2015. After the Kaguya-sama: Love is War series gained major steam worldwide, Akasaka launched the popular Oshi no Ko manga series with co-author Mengo Yokoyari. Oshi no Ko is still ongoing, and fans can expect new works for both of Akasaka’s franchises in the form of new novels.
