Manga about novelist Osamu Dazai reincarnated into modern Japan launched in December 2019

The December issue of Ichijinsha's Monthly Comic Zero-Sum magazine revealed on Thursday that Tensei! Dazai Osamu: Tensei Shite, Sumimasen, Kyōsuke Suga's manga adaptation of Yūya Satō's Tensei! Dazai Osamu (Reincarnate! Osamu Dazai) novel series, will end in the magazine's February 2022 issue on December 28.

Suga launched the manga in Monthly Comic Zero-Sum in December 2019. The manga's first compiled volume shipped on May 25.

The novel series centers on famous Japanese novelist Osamu Dazai, author of No Longer Human, who is reincarnated into modern Japan with his scathing sarcasm and dry wit toward humanity intact.

Sato launched the first novel in the series with art by Shinobu Shinotsuki (Saga of Tanya the Evil original novel illustrations) in September 2018.

Suga published the Danganronpa 2: Ultimate Luck and Hope and Despair (Super Danganronpa 2 Chō-kōkō-kyū no Kōun to Kibō to Zetsubō) manga on Mag Garden's website from 2012 to 2016. The series received three compiled book volumes, all of which Dark Horse Comics published in English.

Viz Media previously published Sato's Dendera novel under its Haikasoru imprint. Sato also wrote the Danganronpa Togami novel series. Sato's "Gray-Colored Diet Coke" short story appeared in the second English volume of the Faust anthology.
