Manga Mavericks Books Licenses Gago Hunters Manga
Manga Mavericks Books, the publishing division of the Manga Mavericks website and podcast, announced on Monday during its online event that it has licensed Sho Yonoko's Gago Hunters: Greetings from Amatsumizu City's Gago Suppression Squad (Amatsumizu-shi "Gago" Bokumetsu Dayori: Gagohan) manga. The company will release the manga physically and digitally in July 2027.
The company describes the story:
Greetings from Amatsumizu City! Come for the sights, stay for the…Gago?At first glance, Amatsumizu is a normal-looking town, but mysterious creatures known as the Gago outnumber the people who call the city home.
The mayor calls in a crack-team of Gago busters to deal with the supernatural menace – except the team doesn't exist yet! The mayor's on a tight budget, leaving him no choice but to volun-tell a team of ordinary citizens to take on the job. Hair stylist Umeko, cashier Mii, high school student Hiromi, and Umeko's apprentice Yuuri become the Gago Hunters against their will. It sounds like an easy score for the supernatural, but each girl has something…off about them.
The Gago had better relocate fast, before they're hunted down by the real monsters of Amatsumizu!
The manga debuted in September 2023 on HERO'S Web. The sixth compiled book volume shipped in Japan on July 6.
Manga Mavericks Books also unveiled a variant cover for its upcoming February 2027 release of Taiyo Matsumoto's Brothers of Japan (Nihon no Kyoudai) manga. The variant cover will be exclusive to the company's online store.
The Manga Mavericks website and podcast established the Manga Mavericks Books publishing division in April 2025 to license, localize, and distribute works worldwide from indie creators in Japan.
