First work by Unohana Utsugi

Asura's Verdict marks the debut of Unohana Utsugi as a manga artist. It was first published in Japan in 2024 under the title Asura no Sata on Shônen Jump+, a digital platform operated by Shûeisha editions.

Genre and current status in Japan

The series combines drama, horror, supernatural themes, and social commentary. It has already released four volumes in Japan, with the fourth volume set to come out in mid-November after a two-month delay caused by the artist's health issues.

Future release plans in Japan

The fifth volume of Asura's Verdict is typically scheduled for release in Japan this winter, as indicated by updates from Unohana Utsugi on their X account. The story follows Asura, a high school student who tries to stay virtuous in memory of his late mother, only to receive a key from an old man that allows him to send people to hell.
