Why it matters

Itsuwari no Kenta is ending barely a year after launch, and it closes within days of Baba's The Ride-On King finale, so Kodansha's Monthly Shonen Sirius is losing both of his current serials almost at once.

The story follows novice adventurer Ren defending a spirit's forgotten shrine with help from a unicorn. Baba launched the series in Monthly Shonen Sirius in December 2025, and Kodansha shipped the second compiled volume on October 8.

The second volume arrived on October 8, and the finale follows about seven weeks later. Baba's other Sirius series, The Ride-On King, ended on October 24 after launching in the same magazine in May 2018. The earlier Golosseum ran in Kodansha's pages too and finished in December 2017, with Kodansha USA Publishing releasing its six volumes in North America. Itsuwari no Kenta has no announced North American release.
