The finish line is nearly in sight for Shuuichi Shigeno’s MF Ghost manga. The Initial D sequel enters the climax of its final battle in the issue of Kodansha’s Weekly Young Magazine that ships this Friday, and according to the magazine’s Amazon listing, there are just six chapters left in total.
This follows a handful of hiatuses in recent years, including one that lasted from November 2022 to February 2024 due to Shigeno’s health. Another hiatus followed from April 2023 to June 2023.
The manga kicked off in 2017 and is ongoing. Here’s the official description of the first volume:
MF Ghost Plot
The author of Intiial D has roared back onto the track with another hit! In a near future where cars have mostly switched over to sustainable power, combustion engine racing is a rarity. The MFG is just a race, and Kanata Rivington has come to try his luck. But that’s not all he’s come to Japan to do…he’s searching for his father, too. Can even the ambitious Kanata accomplish all he’s set out to do?
The anime adaptation started in October 2023, with a second season following in October 2024. Next up is the third season, which was just announced after the conclusion of the second in December.
