Tōhai's Shinasaka Ends Bakuto Gambling Manga
posted on by Sarah Nelkin
This year's 15th issue of Shonengahosha's Young King magazine is publishing the final chapter of Kōji Shinasaka's Bakuto gambling manga on Monday. The message at the end of the chapter thanks readers for loving the series, and also asks readers to look forward to the author's next work.
The manga revolves around Baku Ōmura, a hot-blooded young man who attends the private Yagisawa High School. He hates people who break the rules, and as he takes on many of his schoolmates and adults in various games of gambling, he sees through cheating with his wit and skill.
Shinasaka began the manga in 2011, and Shonengahosha shipped the third compiled volume in Japan last September. His Tōhai mahjong manga was adapted into a live-action film last year.
