According to the eighth volume of Amahara and Coolkyoushinja’s The Idaten Deities Know Only Peace manga, the end isn’t too far off. The ninth volume—which is currently set to go on sale sometime in fall or winter later this year—will be its last.
Serving as a remake of Amahara’s web manga, The Idaten Deities Know Only Peace first launched in Young Animal magazine in August 2018. It previously inspired a TV anime adaptation that aired in July 2021 and streamed on Crunchyroll.
Seven Seas Entertainment publishes the series in English and has released five volumes so far, with the sixth scheduled for a May 21, 2024 launch.
Here’s how they describe it:
It’s been eight hundred years since the powerful Idaten deities sealed away the demons who plagued humanity. To the foul-mouthed Hayato, a young deity, the story is mostly a myth. For this new generation of idle deities, there’s just not much to do as they watch over humans in peace. But when the seal on the demons breaks, it’s up to Hayato and his oddball compatriots to come to humanity’s rescue! Can these misfit gods who know nothing of war rise to the challenge, or is a demon threat in a messy mortal world too much to handle?
