Following the end of the long-running and successful shonen series, Fairy Tail, creator Hiro Mashima began a new project. Edens Zero is a newer series that has been publishing in the pages of Kodansha's Weekly Shonen Magazine since 2018.
The series follows a story about a young man who, after meeting his first human in a century, embarks on a brand-new adventure that includes a robot revolution and space travel! As of now, the series has compiled ten volumes and has released nine so far.
Kodansha Comics does an excellent job of bringing the series to many more eyes by including a digital release, along with the published version. Since the series, by all accounts, is still young. The sky is the limit as to how the series will grow and change, as the world of shonen always leaves room for character growth.
In recent news, the 28th issue of Weekly Shonen Magazine declared a "major announcement" is coming for the series in the pages of the next chapter. While no hints have been given, the possibilities are endless. Anything from a new anime, special chapter, or even a crossover could be in the cards.
Edens Zero is setting itself up to grow fast and make sure it is as big as the manga that came before. We would love to hear the thoughts of any fans of the series as the momentum begins to pick up!
