Ushijima The Loan Shark Gets New One-Shot Set 10 Years After Manga End
The one-shot exists only as a physical exhibition piece for now, so 10 years of pent-up readership gets a single, time-limited viewing window at Yurakucho Marui rather than a collected release.
Reporting from 1 source: Anime News Network.
Shohei Manabe will draw a new one-shot for Ushijima the Loan Shark, set 10 years after the manga's ending. Manabe announced 38 pages on September 1; the combined 42nd and 43rd issue of Shogakukan's Weekly Big Comic Spirits reported on Monday that it runs 34 pages. The one-shot will be shown at an exhibition at Yurakucho Marui in Tokyo from September 19 to October 4, and Manabe stated there are no plans to release it outside the exhibition.
The page count changed between the two places the announcement surfaced. Manabe said 38 pages on September 1; the magazine's combined 42nd and 43rd issue gave 34 pages on Monday. The one-shot will be displayed at full size, every page, at Yurakucho Marui in Tokyo from September 19 to October 4. Manabe stated there are no plans to publish it outside the exhibition. He launched the manga in Weekly Big Comic Spirits in 2004 and ended it in March 2019, with the 46th and final volume shipping that May.
