The Nippon Sangoku manga is on hiatus as creator Ikka Matsuki recovers from steroid withdrawal syndrome, while the television anime adaptation is currently streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
The manga Nippon Sangoku The Three Nations of the Crimson Sun, which launched in 2021 on Shogakukan's Manga ONE app and Ura Sunday website, has gone on hiatus. Creator Ikka Matsuki announced on June 1 that they are recovering from steroid withdrawal syndrome and have been bedridden with a high fever for over two weeks. The seventh volume of the manga shipped on April 10.
The hiatus pauses a series that had received critical recognition, including a Manga Taisho nomination. At the same time, the television anime adaptation began streaming on Amazon Prime Video on April 5. Episode 7, which aired on May 18, reframed the antagonist Tonotsugu Taira through empathetic writing and action, with Lieutenant General Sugoh taking center stage in a brutal fight and the supporting antagonist Nagao killed early in his run.
The anime is currently streaming on Amazon Prime Video, but no further episodes or continuation plans have been announced since the hiatus notice. The manga's return date depends on Matsuki's recovery.
