Kodansha's Weekly Shonen Magazine announced on Wednesday that KOJIRO's Ura-Tokyo: Exorcist City manga will end in the next issue on September 24. The series follows Soma Kuroniwa, a student at a secret exorcist academy beneath Tokyo who is cursed to carry a dangerous spirit. KOJIRO launched the manga in Weekly Shonen Magazine on March 17, the same day it began on K MANGA. The second compiled volume shipped on August 17.
The final chapter of Ura-Tokyo: Exorcist City arrives on September 24, the issue after the announcement. Kodansha has shipped two compiled volumes, the second on August 17. The manga ran in the same magazine that announced its end, and K MANGA has carried it in English since the March 17 launch. The short run leaves the series with a small body of collected work for readers who came to it through the digital release.
