Fire Emblem Fates manga

Yesterday, we learned that plans for the Fire Emblem manga that Kozaki Yuusuke and Shin Kibayashi were working on had been put on hold (if not downright cancelled).

But on the same day, some good news came from the latest issue of Monthly Comic Zero Sum: starting with the March issue (releasing on January 28th), the magazine will publish a new Fire Emblem manga. Called Fire Emblem if: Nibelung no Houkan (lit. Fire Emblem Fates: The Crown of Nibelung), it will focus on Leo from Fire Emblem Fates.

The manga is by Tama Yugyouji, who previously worked Sword and Cornett, Kyuuketsuki, Arael’s Edge, and Tel Cel.
