Final volume to ship next spring

The 12th volume of JIN and Mahiro Satou's Kagerou Daze manga revealed Thursday that the manga will end in the 13th volume when it ships around spring 2019. The manga's 11th volume had teased in March that the manga was headed toward its climax.

JIN's Kagerou Project began as a Vocaloid song series that JIN wrote and composed in 2011. JIN launched the Kagerou Daze novel series in May 2012, with illustrations by Sidu. Kadokawa published the eighth and final volume on December 29.

Satou launched the manga adaptation of the novels in Kadokawa's Monthly Comic Gene magazine in June 2012.

The series inspired a 12-episode television anime adaptation titled Mekakucity Actors in 2014. Crunchyroll streamed the anime as it aired in Japan. A short anime film titled MX4D Kagerou Daze -in a days- opened in Japan in November 2016. Sidu, the illustrator of the novels and music videos, made her directorial debut with the film.

Yen Press publishes both the light novel series and manga in North America. The company will publish the novel series' eighth volume and the manga's 10th volume on December 11.
