A bonus volume titled Rokudenashi Mini Blues will be released on November 4 for the manga Rokudenashi Blues, a cult work by Masanori Morita. This 240-page volume will be published in the same large format of 15x21cm and will be priced at 11.90€. The volume was completed in France last June by Pika Editions following the release of its 25th and final volume in the Masterpiece collection. This bonus volume will compile all the bonus mini-chapters that were already included in the various volumes of the series. It is up to readers to decide whether this justifies repurchasing the series. In these mini-chapters, the characters trade their intimidating appearances for adorable chibi versions and find themselves in situations that are as improbable as they are absurd. The chibi style is a popular artistic technique in manga and anime that depicts characters in small, simplified, and often humorous forms. These mini-chapters offer a lighter, more whimsical take on the original series, which is known for its intense and dramatic storytelling. Rokudenashi Blues follows Taison Maeda, a student who is excited to arrive at Teiken High School. However, the boy's joy is short-lived: on the first day, he accidentally hits a teacher and is sent home for a few days. Upon his return, Maeda and his two companions, Katsuji and Yoneji, quickly find themselves involved in the conflict between the supporters' group and the boxing club. The new students will soon be recognized, and especially, they will try to gain respect. A difficult task, especially when Hatanaka, the captain of the boxing club who had been expelled, returns to school. The series has been praised for its unique blend of action, humor, and character development. With the release of Rokudenashi Mini Blues, fans have the opportunity to revisit the world of Rokudenashi Blues in a new and playful format. Whether readers choose to purchase the bonus volume or not will depend on their interest in these additional, lighthearted stories.
