Kodansha 's "Magazine Pocket" app launched the first chapter of the Fairy Tail Gaiden: Raigō Issen manga on Wednesday. The spinoff manga by Kyōta Shibano focuses on the character Laxus Dreyar from Hiro Mashima 's Fairy Tail manga.

Shibano started the Fairy Tail Gaiden: Rhodonite spinoff manga in "Magazine Pocket" last November, and ended it on March 30. That previous manga centered on Gajeel Redfox.
