Crows is in print in English through Kodama Tales, which licensed the manga for release between January and April 2027. Hiroshi Takahashi's sequel series Dustland is running in Young Champion, and Bandai's Crows & Worst Capsule Figure Collection arrives in the third week of November 2026.
Crows has moved outward from the page in three directions this year. Kodama Tales licensed Hiroshi Takahashi's Crows among five new manga titles, with releases set between January and April 2027. That puts the original manga in front of English readers while its sequel continues in Japan.
The sequel is Dustland, which Takahashi writes as the official follow-up to Crows and Worst. Its first volume arrived on June 19 with commemorative comments from eight figures, including actor Shun Oguri and rapper R-Shitei. The series runs in Young Champion and follows delinquent boy Asada Hibari in the Utsusemi district.
Oguri's connection to the franchise runs through Takashi Miike's Crows Zero and Crows Zero II, his first two films with the director. In an October interview he said he was 23 during Crows Zero and stayed inside the role off set then, and that he now questions whether carrying a role constantly is the only honest way to act. He appears in Miike's Bad Lieutenant: Tokyo as a corrupt, drug-addicted detective, his fourth film with the director after Terra Formars.
Merchandise has followed. Bandai's Crows & Worst Capsule Figure Collection is a 500 yen gashapon set due in the third week of November 2026, covering four characters: Harumichi Boya and Ryushin Kunou from Crows, and Toru Hanaki and Tessei Kawauchi from Worst. An earlier report on the same set named Toru Kuriko in place of Hanaki; the November 1 story lists Hanaki.
