Busty ninja video game series Senran Kagura has a number of adaptations in Japan, and the anime version was recently streamed by FUNimation in North America. Next up it looks like we’ll be getting in on some of the manga the series inspired, with Seven Seas planning to publish Senran Kagura: Skirting Shadows in English.
The manga, by Amami Takatsume and Senran Kagura creator Kenichirō Takaki, originally debuted in Media Factory’s Comic Alive magazine in 2011. Seven Seas will release the first volume in November, with the second shipping in March 2014. Here’s Seven Seas’ synopsis:
Hanzo Academy: a secret high school established by the Japanese government to educate the newest generation of ninja girls. The spunky second year student, Asuka, along with her friends, the perverted Katsuragi, the childish Hibari, the mature Ikaruga and the deadly Yagyu, must each undergo rigorous training in their daily school life. But do they have what it takes to become full-fledged ninja? Only their bodacious skills and prodigious talents can keep them alive while they struggle against ninja rivals who seek to destroy them at every turn.
